Dragon Lee comments on his NJPW status.
On Monday, Andrade El Idolo took to social media to say that he couldn't work with New Japan Pro-Wrestling due to CMLL and AAA. It was later reported by Luchablog that The Lucha Bros (Penta Osucro & Rey Fenix) would not be working AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door.
Dragon Lee followed up Andrade's comments, saying that he also couldn't work with NJPW due to "damn politics."
