At tonight’s CWF Mid-Atlantic event in Gibsonville, NC, former Impact X-Division Champion Trevor Lee announced he has officially signed with WWE, according to PWInsider. Lee is still technically the CWF Mid-Atlantic Champion and said he would be at the upcoming February 2 event where a six-way match for the title will go down.
Lee announced on Twitter earlier this month he had finished up with Impact Wrestling and was a free agent.

Today I am officially a Free Agent.
I want to thank @IMPACTWRESTLING for all the friends I have made and knowledge I have learned. #ZNABack in November, Lee spoke with Sports Illustrated and commented on how it was his dream to get to WWE in honor of his late father, Tracy Caddell, co-founder of OMEGA Championship Wrestling.
“I would love to go to WWE or New Japan,” Lee said. “I’ve done a lot in the United States in terms of big independent companies, I’ve wrestled in Mexico, Canada, England, and India, but I’d love to go to Japan. … I’m not chasing my father’s dreams, but I do want to do something for him. And it’s for me, as well. Ultimately, I would like to go to WWE. That’s the dream. It’s always something my father really wanted for me.”
