Dragon Lee has been absent from WWE since this past April’s WrestleMania 42 event in Las Vegas, Nevada. Lee had competed in a Six-Man Ladder match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship at the event.
Lee provided an update earlier today on Twitter posting a cryptic tweet stating “2-3 weeks.” No other details or context was given which quickly led to online speculation about Lee’s status in WWE and future in the company.
