Lee earned his title shot by defeating Damian Priest, Cameron Grimes, and Dominik Dijakovic on Wednesday's episode of NXT. Lee picked up the victory following a pop-up Spirit Bomb on Grimes.
Lee previously challenged Strong for the NXT North American Title on the Oct. 23 episode of NXT in a triple threat match that also featured Dijakovic. Strong managed to retain his title on that night. This will mark Lee's first singles match on television for the title.
