Keith Lee became one of the biggest stars in WWE NXT, and his move to WWE RAW was seen as a welcomed one. He got his first PPV match at WWE Payback just days after his debut on RAW. However, many believed that WWE was rushing into the decision, and critics did not hold back as he made his first appearance on the Red brand with a new gear and entrance theme.

After his first match against Randy Orton ended in a no-contest on WWE RAW, he got the biggest opportunity of his life to compete in a match against the 13-time World Champion at WWE Payback.

While Lee had to work hard during the match, he was able to bring out all of his big moves while enduring some punishment from The Legend Killer. He finally managed to hit the Spirit Bomb to pick up one of the biggest victories of his career against the top active Superstar of WWE.

Many did not expect Lee to go over a star like Orton so soon, and it seems like WWE is fast-tracking The Limitless One to success. We hope this push doesn’t die down soon, and instead, WWE gives Lee all the opportunities he needs to become a top WWE Superstar.
