"I wish he was still in the WWE" - Twitter reacts to AEW star's underwhelming return under Tony Khan's leadership

Several fans on Twitter believe that a current AEW star should have remained in WWE.

The star in question, Keith Lee, joined the Jacksonville-based Promotion last year. Since then, he has faced several opponents on the roster.

Lee's rise to prominence started after he teamed up with Swerve Strickland. The duo also earned the World Tag Team titles after a three-way match to dethrone the Young Bucks.

Before his current company, Keith Lee had quite a successful stint in NXT. The Limitless One even held the NXT and North American Championships simultaneously at one point.

However, he was released from the Stamford-based company due to budget cuts in 2021.

According to fans on Twitter, Keith Lee would have been better off in WWE, despite his significant success in Tony Khan's promotion. Here's a look at some of the reactions:

The former WWE star recently returned to AEW

After weeks of absence, the Limitless One made his return to AEW Television to reignite a previous rivalry.

Before Lee's hiatus, he was attacked by his former tag team partner Swerve Strickland and the latter's new associates. This effectively removed Lee from the active scene as part of the storyline.

He recently returned to Rampage, saving Dustin Rhodes from a brutal beatdown by the Mogul Affiliates. Upon his return, Keith Lee took to Twitter to post an interesting message.

"I suppose my personal story with this family is not quite done. @dustinrhodes," Keith Lee tweeted.

Keith Lee is seemingly poised to renew his feud against Swerve Strickland in the coming weeks. It remains to be seen how he decides to turn the tables on Swerve since the latter now has quite a formidable team to assist him.
