Trevor Lee has praise for Shane Helms.
Lee has maintained a great relationship with 'Hurricane' Shane Helms over the years, dating all the way back to the time that they spent together in TNA Wrestling. Then, Helms and Lee worked together in WWE, as Lee helped Helms get Logan Paul ready for WrestleMania 40.
While speaking to Fightful for a new interview, Lee praised Helms for lending him a hand on numerous occasions throughout his career.
"It was absolutely incredible. Shane has done so much for my career. TNA, when I first got to work with him, that's where he started to really become a producer. That was this first shot being a producer was in TNA at that time as well. So it was cool. Like I said, at the time I was very poor and he would get a free hotel room and he would let me stay with him because it would save all the money that we could and then I would get to hang out with them and get to hear those stories and get to hear his knowledge. So then to be able to meet back up in WWE was so cool because he didn't stop lending that hand. The last thing that I did in WWE to me, that was the absolute coolest, was Shane was actually Logan Paul's handler. So when he would go to help him—Shane's not taking bumps anymore, he'll talk his trash, but he ain't taking the bumps anymore."
Lee went on to elaborate on the Helms/Paul situation, saying that he helped take bumps and essentially produce the match between Logan Paul, Kevin Owens, and Randy Orton at WrestleMania 40.
"So when he needed a guy to be that bump, he requested me to do that. So I got to be a part of that learning process, that producing process of watching him call those matches, those big Logan Paul matches. The last match that I got to be a part of was the Logan Paul / Kevin Owens / Randy Orton match at WrestleMania. So to be able to sit there and shadow legends like that and call a match for WrestleMania, the biggest show of the year. It's incredible, right? So that was very cool being able to sit in Gorrilla while that match is going on and hear spots that I got to help with, get the reactions that we thought they would get on that stage. It was very cool. So it was a very big high and then two weeks later, I get the call that they're releasing me. So I have a lot of energy that I want to show that I can use."
