While we have been focusing on the massive news of Keith Lee becoming the new NXT Champion, let's not forget that he is now the first Superstar to hold both the NXT title and North American Championship at the same time. In the last 12 months, we have seen the massive success of Becky 2 Belts and now Bayley Dos Straps on the main roster, and now it is the beginning of the era of Keith Lee as NXT's double champion!

There's so much potential with a top babyface like Keith Lee holding two titles, one of the best being the possibility of a weekly open challenge for the NXT North American Championship, which could surely make for some entertaining matches - not to forget, raising the prestige of NXT's secondary singles championship. This would ensure that the title doesn't get overlooked with Lee being the NXT Champion as well.

It would be interesting to see how long NXT keeps the two titles on him. But as of now, let's all "Bask in his glory!" and congratulate the new NXT Double Champion, Keith Lee!
