Top 5 WWE RAW Superstars Drew McIntyre could elevate in the upper mid-card  

#1 RAW Superstar Keith Lee

Keith Lee at RAW

Before he debuted on RAW, Keith Lee was one of the top competitors on WWE NXT. He won both the NXT North American Championship and the NXT Championship.

When Keith Lee made his debut on RAW, he made an impact by challenging Randy Orton. Within Lee's first week in the main roster, he made a name for himself by defeating Orton in convincing fashion at WWE Payback.

But for the most part, Lee has been lost in the shuffle on the red brand. He has taken some questionable losses that have derailed his momentum on RAW. Vince McMahon even sent Lee, along other stars, back to the Performance Center to hone his craft.

The last time Lee was seen on television dates back to the January 11, 2021 episode of RAW, where he defeated Sheamus in a singles match. Many fans have questioned Lee's absence. He even missed this year's Royal Rumble show, though he was one of the favorites to win the battle royal.

The Road to WrestleMania is underway, so there is still time for Lee to enter the WWE Championship picture. To build his stock back up, he needs to start winning more singles. With a potential win in the Elimination Chamber Match, he could become the number one contender for McIntyre's WWE Championship and face him at WrestleMania.
