Keith Lee is being groomed to be the next big thing and it is clear that Randy Orton himself has taken a personal interest in the man. And so has Seth Rollins, in a sense, because even the veteran did his best to make Lee look like an absolute monster on WWE RAW. Both of these heels want a strong babyface to work with because they have very many years left in their careers and in due course of time, Keith Lee could very well become the face of WWE RAW.

Here's what a WWE source told me last night about Keith Lee's big win over Randy Orton.Vince McMahon wants to 'push Lee to the moon' and directly tasked Orton with making him a star. It's said Orton wants to 'help create that next generation of stars.'https://t.co/QoJ1LeWZQK
So, even though Keith Lee technically lost the match, it was not he that got pinned as Seth Rollins ate the pinfall to put Randy Orton over on WWE RAW.
While a lot of you may be upset about what transpired on RAW this week and may think that Keith Lee's push is over after his very first outing, the truth of the matter is that the man is on fire.
