Should stay in NXT: Keith Lee

Enter caption

NXT scored a real coup when they signed independent sensation Keith Lee. Lee has been seen in ROH, but was mired in a tag team and didn't get a chance to truly shine on his own.

As big of fans as we are of Keith Lee, he just arrived in NXT, and he has still got a bit to learn about the WWE style of wrestling. The big man is impressive and draws many comparisons to Samoa Joe and Big Bossman. He's a heavyweight who can move like a cruiserweight, capable of striking, technical wrestling, and even high flying.

We have no doubt Lee will end up main eventing Wrestlemania one day. But that time hasn't come yet, and besides NXT needs his presence and incredible athleticism. Keith Lee tells fans to 'bask in his glory,' and the best place to do that is in NXT.
