5 mid-card WWE Superstars who could win a world title in 2021

#3 Keith Lee could become WWE Champion in 2021

Keith Lee made a big debut on WWE RAW in August

Keith Lee made his WWE main roster debut back in August and fans instantly expected him to do big things on Monday Night RAW.

Lee was thrust into the middle of the Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre feud straight away and had confrontations and matches with both competitors. The Limitless One even got a clean, seven-minute pinfall victory over Orton at Payback, which is not something WWE gives to everyone.

Fans of his NXT run knew full well the awesome things the Limitless One was capable of doing. Lee's matches with Dominik Dijakovic, Johnny Gargano and Adam Cole to win the NXT Championship were all exceptional outings for the big man.

Keith Lee is a former North American and NXT Champion.

Since then, however, Lee has struggled on RAW, having matches of little consequence, meaning or stakes in his early days on the brand. More recently, however, Lee was part of Team RAW, who got a clean sweep victory over Team SmackDown at Survivor Series.

Lee is a phenomenal figure that can do extraordinary things, and WWE in the past has undoubtedly given him the shine he deserves. At last year's Survivor Series, he went toe-to-toe with Roman Reigns at the end of the match, and at the Royal Rumble in January he had a memorable interaction with Brock Lesnar.

Lee is such an astonishing talent and always ready to put on incredible matches that it is only a matter of time before fans get to bask in his glory as WWE Champion.
