Parker Boudreaux, who was previously associated with The Trust Busters, attacked Lee from behind. The big man took care of the aggressors, only to get jumped by another man outside the ring. The two men took care of Lee long enough for Strickland to hit him with a double stomp from the top rope, destroying the cinder block placed on Lee’s chest.

Strickland’s new stable is called “Mogul Affiliates.” As for Lee, he could very well repair his old friendship with Shane Taylor in order to take on Swerve and his new lackeys.
