One of the returning WWE Superstars on the current roster who could go up against Roman Reigns at SummerSlam 2021 is Keith Lee. The former NXT Champion has been away from WWE TV for a while now and fans have been eager to see him return and find out what plans the company has for him.

Recently, it was reported that his fiance and WWE Superstar Mia Yim, who was also known as Reckoning as part of the faction RETRIBUTION, is set to move to the Blue brand. If that is the case, we might see Keith Lee also jumping brands and appearing on Friday Night SmackDown soon.

Lee had a great run back on NXT but his booking on the main roster has left the fans disappointed. WWE could fix this by letting him main event The Biggest Party of the Summer against the Universal Champion Roman Reigns.

Lee and Reigns also have some interesting history together dating back to WWE Survivor Series 2019. Representing Team NXT, Keith Lee gave a memorable performance in the men's traditional Survivor Series match, pinning Seth Rollins and even reaching the final two alongside RAW's Roman Reigns.

The then NXT Superstar almost won it for his team before falling short against Reigns. The two then bumped fists showing respect for each other after the match, in what was a star-making moment for Keith Lee.
