That question will be answered at NXT TakeOver XXX when Lee defends the NXT Championship against Karrion Kross, who will be accompanied by the sinister Scarlett.
Lee has elevated his game to new heights in 2020, gobbling up all the gold available. First, he became North American Champion in January, then continued to pick up steam before knocking off Adam Cole to capture the NXT Title and reach the top of the mountain in NXT.
But Kross has carved out an unprecedented path of destruction ever since his arrival on the black-and-gold brand. Laying waste to the likes of Tommaso Ciampa, Dominik Dijakovic, Bronson Reed and most recently Danny Burch, Kross has looked nothing less than unstoppable.
With Kross vowing to continue decimating Superstars left and right until Lee gave him this opportunity, The Limitless One finally acquiesced, incensed especially by the damage he had done to his good friend Dijakovic.
However, when Lee put pen to paper to make the match official, he was blindsided by a fireball attack plotted by Kross and Scarlett. Though no serious damage was reported, does the incendiary incident hurt Lee’s chances to retain the title?
Then again, Lee has repeatedly shown that he is capable of overcoming practically anything. But with Kross representing a challenge unlike any opponent he’s seen, are the sands of time running out on Lee’s NXT Title reign?
