Wes Lee defeats 6′5″ tall WWE Superstar to retain North American Championship on NXT

Wes Lee defended his North American Championship against Von Wanger on the latest episode of WWE NXT.

It was announced that he would hold an open challenge for the title this week. Dijak and Tony D'Angelo showed interest in answering it. They were even spotted backstage behind Lee as he made his way to the ring.

Wes Lee was in the squared circle waiting for an answer. D'Angelo's music hit, and he came out with Stacks. They were on their way to the ring, but Dijak showed up and attacked Tony on the stage. Stacks then went to help his companion, and they all left to the back.

Just then, Von Wagner ambushed Lee and dropped him with a big boot. He answered the open challenge, and the match began. The champion went for a Tornado DDT, but his opponent countered it.

Wagner then went for another big boot. He lifted Lee and was about to toss him over to the announce table, but Lee evaded it.
