If Wes Lee could form a tag team with any wrestler in history, he'd pick Ricky "The Dragon Steamboat.

Lee revealed in an interview with Under The Ring that Steamboat would be his dream partner because "it's The Dragon."

"His style and flare and flash that he had on his moves is something influenced me," Lee said of Ricky Steamboat. I don't know how I happened to neglect influences early on, but yeah, Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat."

Lee is a former NXT Tag Team Champion as part of the MSK group. He recently was NXT North American Champion and holds the record as the longest reigning North American Champion in history. Two weeks ago on NXT and with the help of The Judgement Day, Dominik Mysterio defeated Lee to win the championship.
