wasn't this always going to be the case? Meltzer reported long ago that he was getting paid the biggest NXT deal ever and that he wasn't going to be there for long. hell I'd argue there was no need to have him there in the first place but that's a separate discussion.

I do hope he said a big thankyou to the ratings draw and in-ring technician that is Dominik Mysterio for bringing him to the big time earlier than planned.

I thought Trick winning at No Mercy was also a sign plans changed and Dragon Lee wasn't gonna win that title now bc he was moving up but Dom just won it back so idk there now lmao

A second-generation Lucha Libre Superstar, Dragon Lee has won championships worldwide with his supreme skills as both a singles competitor and a tag team aficionado.

The high-flying and uber-athletic Dragon Lee has earned industry-wide respect with his seamless blend of acrobatics with mat technician skills. The Mexican-born Superstar has ruled every ring that he’s ever graced with his unique and jaw-dropping offense. After proving himself in NXT, Lee descended on SmackDown ready to makes a splash on the blue brand.​
Taken from his bio on wwe.com which now officially lists him on SmackDown

Lowkey would love the CW title to return so he has something legit to go for. Could make it interbrand like the tag titles so he can go to all 3 shows to defend

They've tried several options over the years as a 'heir to Rey Mysterio' but they've always come back to the Rey himself. Time's running out to find someone. Dragon Lee has a great shot at being the guy to be the next big masked superstar. I do worry that they've fast-tracked him prematurely form NXT, but I think he has the wrestling ability and (more importantly) the promo ability to take on the task.
