5 Male NXT stars who could be in the 2020 Royal Rumble

#2 Keith Lee

Lee's spot in the Survivor Series' match showed faith in his future in the WWE.

Much like Riddle, McMahon was impressed with Keith Lee due to his size and athleticism. It's probably a huge reason why Lee was among the final two participants with Roman Reigns in the men's elimination match.

Why wouldn't McMahon be in love with a guy like Lee? He's big and over 350 pounds but can move like a cruiserweight. We all know that Vinnie Mac loves big guys and Lee just happens to be able to pull off moonsaults and tope con hilos from over the top rope. Even before Survivor Series, the man who wants us to "Bask in his Glory" was having one of the best series of matches in WWE in recent memory with Dominik Dijakovic. Let's also not forget that he had a strong showing in WarGames on the night before Series.

With some call ups likely to be made following the Rumble, Lee is a name that sticks out as a sore thumb (in the best way possible) due to his crazy athleticism. He could also be used in the monster role with numerous eliminations during the match. There's also that mouth-watering stare down they can revisit between Lee and Braun Strowman. All in all, it would be crazy if Lee wasn't a part of the Rumble due to his and NXT's monumental few months.
