Dragon Lee was a significant signing for WWE because the company had high expectations for him, and those expectations are being met.
When he signed last year, the expectation was that he would be quickly promoted to the main roster because they saw him as the next great Mexican star, similar to Rey Mysterio and Eddie Guerrero. This has occurred with him being part of the SmackDown roster.
Lee, real name Emmanuel Muaztoz Gonzailez, has secured his ring name for use in entertainment and merchandise. On October 26, the WWE wrestler had attorney Michael Dockins file the trademark with the USPTO for the purpose of action figure toys.
The following is the description:
