Trevor Lee and Shane Strickland wrestled at tonight’s NXT TV tapings at Full Sail, though it was likely in a dark match.

The two newly signed wrestlers took on each other in the opening match at the tapings, with Trevor Lee getting the win.

Lee, a former TNA X-Division Champion, signed with WWE in January.

Strickland, a former EVOLVE Champion, former MLW World Heavyweight Champion, and former CZW World Heavyweight Champion, signed in April.

3.0, a Canadian tag team that was also signed in February, also made their debuts, losing to Fabian Aichner and Marcel Barthel.
