Roderick Strong defends his North American championship Wednesday night on NXT, wrestling Keith Lee in a match that is appointment viewing for wrestling fans.
The match represents a tremendous opportunity for both emerging stars to show their excellence on live television. Strong is approaching a critical week. He will have multiple eyes on him from the WWE office and its fan base during his match against Lee on Wednesday, as well as his eight-man tag with The Undisputed Era against Imperium at the “Worlds Collide” special Saturday night on the WWE Network. Following that, there is always the possibility that Strong could be a surprise entrant in Sunday’s Royal Rumble match.
