While recovering from injury, Wes got some advice from Shawn Michaels, who lost years of his career with a back injury.

"Prove yourself wrong," Lee said of Michaels' advice while speaking on Ringer Wrestling Show. "The biggest doubter we can ever have is ourselves. We know what we're capable of. We understand our bodies. Especially hearing it from the man himself, Shawn. The demons that he had to battle to overcome this injury and come back the way he did and have an entire second career. That is something that is unheard of. I didn't necessarily have the opportunity to build a long enough career before my injury, but I do feel this is a revitalization of my career. I feel tremendous. My mind is in a whole different place. I'm thinking in a whole different echelon. Where I feel I can take myself not only physically, but spiritually and mentally as well, ya'll ain't seen nothing yet. The blood that is flowing through these veins is fueling a mutant. A mutant that has healed faster than I should have been and I'm ready to take over."

Lee is scheduled to face Zachary Wentz at NXT No Mercy.
