Dragon Lee (born May 15, 1995) is a Mexican luchador enmascarado (or masked professional wrestler). As of December 2022, he is signed to WWE, where he performs on the Raw brand and is a member of the Latino World Order. He is also the reigning WWE Speed Champion in his first reign.
A second-generation wrestler, he is best known for his work for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), where he portrayed a tecnico ("Good guy") wrestling character. In CMLL, Lee is a two-time CMLL World Lightweight Champion and a one-time CMLL World Welterweight Champion. Lee is also known for his work in Ring of Honor (ROH), where he was ROH World Television Champion and ROH World Tag Team Champion with La Faccion Ingobernable teammate Kenny King, and for his work in New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), latterly wrestling under the name Ryu Lee (リュウ・リー Ryū Rī),[2] where he is a former IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion. He joined WWE in December 2023, where he wrestled on the NXT brand, and within a year, had become the NXT North American Champion. And he is the current WWE Speed Champion. Dragon Lee is the son of professional wrestler Arturo Muñoz, known under the ring name La Bestia del Ring, where the family relationship is publicly acknowledged. He is the second person to use the Dragon Lee ring persona and mask, the first Dragon Lee being his older brother, Carlos, who now wrestles under the ring name Dralístico. He also has another brother, William, who works under the ring name Rush. Dragon Lee's real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans.[3]
