Popular star could finally dethrone Dominik Mysterio; according to legendary wrestling personality (Exclusive)
Hall of Fame journalist Bill Apter feels Dragon Lee will win the NXT North American Championship from Dominik Mysterio this weekend at NXT Deadline.

This week on Smack Talk, Bill Apter mentioned that with the recent losses, Lee will be the underdog heading into the match. He felt that many people would not bet on his chances, which could be the reason why Dragon Lee could finally dethrone Dominik Mysterio.
"I think people are gonna expect him to lose and he's gonna win." [From 43:51 onwards]
