NXT star Wes Lee recently appeared on the Black Rasslin podcast to discuss his upcoming match at the Great American Bash. Lee will be facing off against Mustafa Ali and Dominik Mysterio in a triple-threat matchup for the NXT North American Championship, a title that Dominik recently took from him.
During the interview, Lee admitted that the Great American Bash was never one of his favorite pay-per-views growing up.
“Great American Bash, I’ll be honest, it wasn’t one of my favorite pay-per-views growing up, it really wasn’t. I was more of a Bash at the Beach, Halloween Havoc guy,” Lee said.
Lee went on to explain that it took some time for him to familiarize himself with the history of the Great American Bash. He admitted that he doesn’t have many core memories of the event, but he is excited to create his own history at this year’s Great American Bash.
WWE has owned the rights to these pay-per-view names ever since purchasing WCW in 2001. The Great American Bash has a long and storied history in professional wrestling, dating back to its origins in the NWA in the 1980s.
Lee’s comments have sparked some discussion among fans, with many sharing their own favorite pay-per-views from the past. Some have expressed their love for Bash at the Beach, which was known for its beach-themed sets and memorable moments.
The Great American Bash has had its fair share of iconic moments as well, including matches featuring legends like Ric Flair, Dusty Rhodes, and Sting. Despite Lee’s personal preferences, the event has a special place in the hearts of many wrestling fans.
Lee’s upcoming match at the Great American Bash is highly anticipated, as he looks to reclaim the NXT North American Championship from Dominik Mysterio. Mustafa Ali will also be a formidable opponent in this triple-threat matchup.
