Keith Lee has had an interesting transitional phase on RAW. In just a week since moving on from NXT, The Limitless One has challenged and successfully defeated Randy Orton at a pay-per-view. He's surely gained the attention of even the casual viewers with this dominating win at Payback.

The question arises though, what's the payoff of letting Lee defeat the most sadistic heel on the Red brand? Will he progress to the top of the card immediately? Will he be in for a title shot?

It's highly likely that when Night of Champions rolls around, we'll see Orton and Drew McIntyre square off for the WWE Championship again. Now, it's fairly known that The Viper wants to go on title runs, so if he overcomes McIntyre, will Keith Lee be afforded a title opportunity?

No asterisk. Keith Lee has arrived with a huge, decisive win. People complain WWE don't make stars but how Lee was presented in the ring tonight was just that!Doesn't hurt Orton at all, either. It just turns him more sadistic! #WWEPayback

Not many expected to see the former NXT Champion come up trumps in such a resounding manner at Payback, but now that he has, we can expect exciting things from him in the near future.
