AEW has done an admirable job of signing some of the top luchadores and Mexican talent in professional wrestling. Dragon Lee might be the most popular luchador not under contract at the moment. The former IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion has made a name for himself in the United States on the independent scene and all across the world.
Lee has put on some spectacular bouts against the likes of Hiromu Takahashi, Shingo Takagi and Will Ospreay during his time with New Japan Pro Wrestling. He has also performed in the Tokyo Dome and Madison Square Garden over the past few years. His free agency makes him someone for AEW to sign with experience unlike many others in pro wrestling today.
The exceptional roster currently in All Elite Wrestling has many stars that make for a tantalizing matchup against Dragon Lee. His speed, athleticism and hard-hitting style would fit in nicely with the talent in this promotion. In this article, let's take a look at the five AEW dream matches for Dragon Lee.
#5. Former AEW TNT Champion Darby Allin
AEW would love to showcase the greatness of Dragon Lee and his career rival Hiromu Takahashi. The two men have put on phenomenal matches at CMLL and NJPW. Their amazing chemistry is unquestionable, but the intensity and daredevil spots in their encounters have been described by some as dangerous. Takahashi broke his neck in one of their more famous contests as an example.
If Dragon Lee was to sign with Tony Khan's promotion, a competitor who could fit Hiromu Takahashi 's role in high-risk battles is Darby Allin. He has put his body on the line to win matches and entertain fans. Allin has positioned himself as a top star and future AEW World Champion. He not only puts on quality bouts, but he also has such a cool persona that translates to fans of all ages.
Dragon Lee vs. Darby Allin would be physically intense and see some high flying action all over the ring. The two men can both fly through the air, but they can also have a hard-hitting affair with some stiff strikes. There will be some true magic between Lee and Allin whether it be on AEW Dynamite or pay-per-view.
#4. AEW TNT Champion Sammy Guevara
Sammy Guevara is another day one AEW star who has become known as one of the pillars of the promotion. The Inner Circle member is coming off the biggest win of his career so far after defeating Miro to become the new TNT Champion on the September 29th episode of Dynamite.
Guevara has an exciting high flying style that would mesh very well with Dragon Lee. This is the type of high octane bout that has proven to produce quality and amazing crowd reactions from the All Elite Wrestling fanbase. They have the potential to deliver a show-stealer. Whether it be for the TNT Championship or a personal feud, this is a must-watch encounter.
#3. Andrade El Idolo
Andrade El Idolo had a slow start in AEW after his release from WWE earlier this year. He has finally started to get his feet under him and find his stride in the company. His feud with PAC has produced two excellent contests on Rampage and seems to be getting him over with the fans.
Andrade has a style that mixes strong style and hard-hitting offense with lucha libre influence. He can be explosive with his strikes and his high flying arsenal. The two men have a long history with one another.
Dragon Lee's brother Rush is the best friend of Andrade El Idolo and co-creator of the Los Ingobernables stable in CMLL. That history could create a bitter feud between the two in a major way.
#2. PAC
When speaking of AEW stars with an explosive offense, PAC is the first name that comes to mind. The Death Triangle member has such a physical style inside the squared circle and so much intensity. He goes non-stop when going at his opponent. This has proven to be the case in his tremendous contests against Andrade El Idolo, Kenny Omega, and others.
His list of classics may grow even further when Dragon Lee arrives in All Elite Wrestling. They have a similar stature and arsenal. PAC has strength unlike anyone of his size and an amazing quickness that surprises his opposition. Lee may be the only competitor who can truly match this and keep up with The Bastard.
The two stars would have encounters with an unreal amount of agility on display. They both have surprising power, speed and athleticism that create breathtaking moments inside the ring. AEW has had its fair share of bouts of similar style, but this one may top what has been seen before. A person very close to PAC may be the only other man who can do this with Lee.
#1. One half of the AEW World Tag Team Champions Rey Fenix
Rey Fenix is widely regarded as the best high flyer in AEW and the wrestling business today. He is one half of the AEW World Tag Team Champions with his brother Penta El Zero Miedo as The Lucha Brothers. They have achieved brilliance in tag team bouts and a legendary feud with The Young Bucks. However, Fenix has also reached a level of success in the singles division.
Along with his classic tag team encounters, Rey Fenix has had two of the greatest Dynamite matches of all time in one-on-one action. His tremendous battle with Nick Jackson showed both men can be future world champions. He then put on an early Match of the Year candidate against Kenny Omega on the first Dynamite of 2021.
Dragon Lee surprisingly hasn't had many singles contests with Rey Fenix, despite them facing off in tag team action. They share a lot of similarities in their looks, aerial displays and speed inside the squared circle. It would be an insane battle of two of the best high flyers in the world today. That's why Rey Fenix may be the biggest AEW dream match for Dragon Lee right now.
