Ten years ago, the prospect of a superstar wrestler like Keith Lee, the Limitless one, would have been very poor for the WWE. Lee has a unique body shape which, in spite of his tremendous athletic ability, makes the uneducated, upon first glance believe he is overweight and out of shape.

But it's a new day in WWE. Thanks to athletes such as Samoa Joe, the Samoan Submission Machine, and Kevin Owens, the paradigm of what a WWE athlete should look like has changed tremendously. Keith Lee no longer has to worry about his natural build being a hindrance to his wrestling career.

He created an instant sensation when he made his NXT debut and invited fans and superstars alike to "Bask in his glory." With such a great, ready-made slogan that could be emblazoned upon t-shirts and posters, Lee is in a good place with the WWE. His physical and speedy style have made him a great candidate for Breakout star of the year.
