The short-lived Rascalz reunion is no more.
Wes Lee stunned the NXT audience at the end of Tuesday’s show by turning on longtime friends Zachary Wentz and Trey Miguel after MSK lost their NXT Tag Team title match against Nathan Frazer and Axiom, with Lee taking the pinfall.
After the match, Miguel and Wentz helped Lee to his feet and consoled him. Lee then superkicked Miguel to the shock of the audience. When Wentz asked what he was doing, Lee responded by kicking Wentz in the nether regions. Lee yelled at Wentz that he “left him alone” as he assaulted and kicked Wentz to the outside.
As Miguel tried to recover, Lee threw him into a nearby barricade. With Wentz propped up against the steel steps, Lee hit him with a double running knee strike to close off the show.

Following his loss to Oba Femi at Heatwave last month, Lee was considering his future when TNA stars Wentz and Miguel arrived. They ended up reuniting as a trio and earned a title match after defeating Axiom, Je’Von Evans, and Nathan Frazer on last week’s NXT.
