Keith Lee Returns On WWE Monday Night Raw
Bask in his glory once more
Jul 20, 2021
After a five-plus month absence, Keith Lee returned on WWE Raw on Monday night in Dallas.
Lee answered a non-title "open challenge" set forth by WWE champion Bobby Lashley. Lee managed to avoid being put in the Hurt Lock, but was spinebustered by Lashley, and then pinned following a spear after about six minutes.
Prior to Monday night, Lee had not wrestled for WWE since February 8, where he defeated Riddle on an episode of Monday Night Raw.
Lee, along with Riddle, was scheduled to be part of a triple threat match at Elimination Chamber on February 21, challenging then-United States champion Lashley. However, Lee was a late scratch from the title bout, and replaced by John Morrison.
Reports came out in late-2020 that Lee was going back to the Performance Center (along with several other larger WWE talents) for further training, to add more "big man" spots to their repertoires.
In his time with WWE so far, Lee has won both the NXT championship and NXT North American championship, holding both simultaneously for a time in 2020.
