Wes Lee Turns on Zachary Wentz and Trey Miguel – At NXT Great American Bash night two on August 6th, MSK (Wes Lee and Zachary Wentz) came up short in their quest to reclaim the NXT Tag Team Titles, losing to the reigning champions Axiom and Nathan Frazer. The outcome marked a significant moment for the team, but what happened after the match stole the spotlight.
Following the defeat, Wentz and Trey Miguel, another member of their Rascalz faction, tried to console Wes Lee. However, in a shocking turn of events, Lee turned on his Rascalz brothers. He viciously superkicked Trey Miguel and then delivered a low blow to Wentz. The betrayal didn’t stop there; Lee continued his assault, putting Miguel through the barricade before slamming Wentz into the steel steps. This unexpected heel turn by Lee has left fans and the NXT roster alike stunned, signaling a major shift in his character and possibly his career trajectory.
The history of MSK in WWE has been tumultuous. After winning the NXT Tag Team Titles at NXT Stand & Deliver 2022, the team never lost the titles in competition. Instead, they were forced to vacate the championships just six days later following Zachary Wentz’s release from the company. This setback marked a challenging period for the team, but they managed to reunite as the Rascalz on the July 9th episode of NXT, bringing a sense of excitement and nostalgia to the fans who remembered their previous success.
The events at the Great American Bash, however, have thrown the future of MSK into question. Wes Lee’s brutal attack on his partners suggests that the unity within the Rascalz is shattered, setting the stage for new rivalries and storylines within NXT.
As fans process this dramatic turn of events, the focus now shifts to what lies ahead for Wes Lee, Zachary Wentz, and Trey Miguel. The betrayal at Great American Bash is likely to have lasting repercussions, not only for the individuals involved but also for the broader NXT tag team division. Whether this leads to a heated feud between the former allies or a new direction for Wes Lee remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the landscape of NXT has just been dramatically altered.
