Keith Lee has been tearing it up on WWE after some pop-worthy appearances on WWE's main roster heading into last year's Survivor Series pay-per-view and recently on NXT where he became the first ever dual champion, winning the NXT Title and retaining the NXT North American Title against Adam Cole.

Lee was another big name on the independent circuit heading into WWE and, like Styles, he's another name that credits Roman Reigns for the success he's found in his WWE career so far.

Lee spoke to Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated and talked about a moment Reigns really helped him:

"Roman doesn't get enough credit for what he means to this sport, And he went above-and-beyond to make that moment. The simple gesture of our fist bump, he turned that into magic. That was the start of something very special for me. He is such a superstar that he made that moment overshadow everything else that happened in that match, and I won't forget it."

The moment occurred when the two big men faced off at Survivor Series 2019 and as Lee stated, it was a magic moment. Massive props to Reigns for recognising that Lee was getting over with the main roster crowd and giving him the rub with the first bump!
