WWE NXT Takeover: Top 5 Superstars at the PPV

#2 Keith Lee

The Moment Maker won't let anyone near his title for a long time

Keith Lee was one of the breakout stars of 2019 as he delivered one compelling performance after another. He displayed his in-ring capabilities at Takeover: WarGames, Survivor Series, and Royal Rumble. In fact, it’s common knowledge that the ‘Moment Maker’ impressed Vince McMahon enough to be picked as the next big thing.

Therefore, it was not surprising to see him enter the title picture soon after. He defeated The Undisputed Era’s Roderick Strong and became the NXT North American Champion. At Takeover, he successfully defended his title against Dominik Dijakovic in the best match of the night, and arguably the best opening match in Takeover history.

Lee, as always, was super agile between the ropes and pulled off maneuvers that you don’t expect to see from someone who weighs above 300 pounds. From a dominant display of strength to his high-flying moves, Lee left no stone unturned in making yet another memorable moment inside the squared circle.

His performance in the whole match added more credibility to his title defense and showed why he deserves to hold onto the title for the foreseeable future.
