Dragon Lee Reflects On Tag Team With AJ Styles, Being Part of Styles’ Last Title Run

Dragon Lee was a co-champion with AJ Styles in the latter’s final title run, and he recently reflected on their run as a tag team on WWE Raw. Styles and Lee teamed up to capture the World Tag Team Championships from the Judgement Day in October of 2025. They held the titles for 70 days before losing them to The Usos.

Dragon Lee spoke about working with Styles and more in his interview on Insight With Chris Van Vliet. Lee also talked about their unofficial tag team name of “AJ Lee,” which Styles rejected on screen as “someone already has that one.” You can see the highlights below:

On Styles:

“What a nice story. He’s so nice. Being a champion with him is another thing that I want to say, he really pushed me to the next level. I’m very grateful to him, because I learned from him in general. As a man, the way he is as a father, and when we became champions, that moment when we grab the titles. He just grabbed me like this and crossed the title, wake up, yes, we won. I was like, what a moment.”

On Being Part Of Styles’ Last Run With a Title:

“I feel honored to be part of his last matches, and even John Cena’s last match [event], I was part of that too. I feel like you know so many things that I’m proud of myself, you know, because if you’re not, if you don’t recognize yourself, who else will? You just look at the mirror and say, ‘You’re doing well, keep working. I’m proud of you, brother. Keep working.’ My family, that’s it, that’s all the energy I need.”

On the Tag Team Name Fans Gave Them:

“Yeah, AJ Lee, right? Yeah, it was fun. We didn’t have enough time to create a name, but I pitched this name, and I think it would have been so great, the Phenomenal Dragons. I feel like that name would be so great, Phenomenal Dragons. AJ Styles has his logo, I said this logo becomes like kind of like a dragon around it, something we can do. But I didn’t realize that he wouldn’t have enough time, he would be retired, nobody expected it.”
