Dragon Lee vs Penta
Dragon Lee believes his WWE Intercontinental Championship bout against Penta could have been legendary. If only they had a few more minutes. Speaking on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, the aerial superstar shared his honest thoughts. He felt they missed a massive opportunity to steal the show and create wrestling history.
Time Limits Stop A Masterpiece
Lee expressed frustration over recent match lengths. First, he mentioned an exciting tag match alongside AJ Styles. They battled Je’Von Evans and Leon Slater, but time was just too short. Soon after, Lee pointed directly at his Intercontinental Championship clash with Penta. “Even my match with Penta for the Intercontinental Championship, we didn’t have so much time,” Lee explained.
“But I would say, if we would have had more time, I’m telling you, brother, that would have been the best match of the year.”
The Magic Of Lucha Libre
The immediate connection between these two incredible athletes stems deeply from their shared Mexican roots. Lee praised his opponent immensely. He noted that this strong bond between Mexican wrestlers always creates something special in the ring. Currently, Lee absolutely loves how WWE and AAA are pushing more Mexican talent forward. Stars can finally be themselves. They proudly remain true luchadors without changing their core wrestling styles or flashy presentations.
Two Champions Collide In WWE
Penta made massive waves when he boldly arrived on Monday Night Raw in January 2025. Fans globally celebrated his exciting debut victory over Chad Gable. Soon after, Penta defeated Dominik Mysterio to proudly capture the Intercontinental Championship. It was his awaited first taste of prestigious WWE gold. Meanwhile, Dragon Lee consistently continues proving his own undeniable worth. As a young Lucha Libre superstar, he easily mixes spectacular moves with sharp technical expertise. The popular former NXT North American Champion is now a truly dangerous hybrid threat to anyone in his path. Fans simply hope these two talented luchadors clash again soon.
