Wes Lee attacks major WWE star backstage; visibly frustrated after huge loss
Wes Lee was frustrated after suffering a major loss on the latest NXT Premium Live Event. He took out his frustration on a major WWE star backstage.
Je'Von Evans is one of the most impressive stars on the NXT. Despite being only 20 years old, Evans has shown he can hold his own against some of the biggest stars in this company, such as Randy Orton.
Tonight on NXT Deadline, Evans had the chance to earn himself a shot at the NXT Championship by competing in the Iron Survivor Challenger. However, his plan was thwarted after Oba Femi made an unexpected return and steamrolled everyone in this match.
He even picked up two pinfalls at the same time which put him in the lead. Je'Von Evans had another impressive showing but couldn't get another pinfall as the time ran out, and Femi won the bout.
After the match, Je'Von Evans was interviewed backstage, and he seemed in good spirits despite the loss. Wes Lee, who was also in the match, interrupted his interview and asked if he was dumb or stupid for acting that way after the loss. The 20-year-old star then criticized Lee for being salty after the loss. This caused the former North American Champion to punch him in the face. They both had to be separated by officials.
It will be interesting to see if this will lead to a rivalry between Wes Lee and Je'Von Evans.
