On Tuesday’s NXT program, one of the most unexpected angles occurred in this saga when Wes Lee did a complete heel turn and brought The Rascalz’ temporary unity to an abrupt halt. The show ended on a shocking note when he betrayed Zachary Wentz and Trey Miguel, his close friends after they lost a crucial NXT Tag Team Championship match.
The show climaxed with a title fight in which MSK, comprised of Wes Lee and Zachary Wentz (with Trey Miguel ringside), faced off with Nathan Frazer and Axiom for the NXT Tag Team Championships. MSK came close to winning but could not secure the victory when it mattered most and he got the pinfall in the match. It was a bitter blow for the trio rejoined the group to win the championships, but fell short. This loss had brought a huge change to their friendship, and the betrayal by him had brought lots of hate for Lee.
Wes Lee Betrayal Unfolds

When Miguel and Wentz tried to comfort their wounded Wes Lee, they were dealt bitter news, as he had taken a turn for the worse. The alleged friendly face turned into anarchy at an early stage. The first superkick flew to Trey Miguel, and the audience could not remain indifferent to this inaction. The betrayal was then done by him when he started attacking Zachary Wentz and gave him one hard shot at the family jewels. This is evident from his actions, who, after assaulting Mark, yelled at Wentz for ‘leaving him alone’.
This violent temper tantrum was witnessed as he unleashed a cavalcade of blows on Wentz with psychotic determination, knocking him out of the ring in the process. This first superkick left poor Miguel staggering; he then proceeded to forcefully collide with a barricade. After leaving the 27-year-old Wentz defenseless with his back leaning against the steel steps, Wes Lee ensured that the challenger did not get up after these brutal final stages of their fight by delivering a double-running knee strike, thus sealing a night filled with treachery and violence.
Context and Backstory
A few months before the dramatic changes, the fate of Wes Lee was not quite clear. As you recall, he fought the losing fight against Oba Femi at Heatwave last month. Zachary Wentz and Trey Miguel of TNA were a ray of light; otherwise, they toggled (shared). This trio was able to get a title match opportunity after they won a face-off against Axiom, Je’Von Evans, and Nathan Frazer in NXT held the previous week.
The breakup of the Rascalz was an abrupt and brutal one, and as such, it has had nominalistic implications for NXT personnel and viewers. Thus, his betrayal not only terminated the brief period of reunion but also provided the basis for further confrontations and animosities. The consequences of this scene will probably not be positive for all three wrestlers, as all of them will have to go through the consequences of this powerful and emotional breakup. Throughout the story, fans and analysts will be more than eager to observe how the devastating act of betrayal will affect Wes Lee, Zachary Wentz, and Trey Miguel’s positions in NXT.
