#4 Keith Lee could return at WrestleMania Backlash

Another major return that could happen at WrestleMania Backlash is that of former NXT Champion Keith Lee. Having impressed the fans during his NXT run, Lee got his main roster call-up after last year's SummerSlam and joined the roster of Monday Night RAW.

Unfortunately, things haven't been that great for The Limitless One on the Red brand. Fans weren't happy with WWE changing his theme song and look upon his main roster call-up. While he was pushed straight into the WWE Championship scene competing against the likes of Drew McIntyre and Randy Orton, the company didn't go all the way with him.

Reportedly, there were plans for Keith Lee to win the United States Championship at WWE Elimination Chamber 2021 earlier this year, but he missed out on the event due to an injury. Lee has since been missing from WWE TV but he recently shared a tweet, possibly teasing a return.

Keith Lee's return might happen as early as this Sunday's WrestleMania Backlash. We might just see him confront Universal Champion Roman Reigns following his match at WrestleMania Backlash, provided he successfully defends his title.

Lee's real-life partner Mia Yim is rumored to debut on SmackDown this week and as a result, he could also move over to the Blue brand and possibly start a feud against Reigns. The two do have some history dating back to WWE Survivor Series 2019 where Lee almost defeated Reigns to win it all for Team NXT.
