Dragon Lee Says He Also Can’t Work With NJPW
Dragon Lee comments on his NJPW status.
On Monday, Andrade El Idolo took to social media to say that he couldn’t work with New Japan Pro-Wrestling due to CMLL and AAA. It was later reported by Luchablog that The Lucha Bros (Penta Osucro & Rey Fenix) would not be working AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door.
Dragon Lee followed up Andrade’s comments, saying that he also couldn’t work with NJPW due to “damn politics.”
