KEITH LEE UPDATE

Spoiler

By Mike Johnson on 2021-07-20 11:30:00
As of yesterday, Keith Lee is officially back on the Raw roster.

Lee's appearance last night was not planned as a a one and done sort of deal.

We are told he has been "cleared" to return to performing, so whatever was keeping him off was not a creative decision.

Lee has stated in recent weeks on social media that when he could speak about the situation, he would.

Unfathomable that it was Jeff Hardy fans complaining night one and Kross fans complaining night two, every wrestling fan is the same

I'm not even a big Kross fan but calling your NXT Champion to job in 2 minutes might be the dumbest thing WWE did this month

 

[Cwalker]

Wrestling fans never want to enjoy the ride. Obviously something is going to happen with him and Hardy.

Maybe it's going to be a long term feud. If Jeff loses here, there's no momentum for something long term. Jeff has done a great job putting over new talent, so maybe this is just his new assignment.

Jeff should show up on NXT tonight and challenge Kross tbh I beat a guy in two minutes that's a champion and that's my next move

 

[Vegeta]

Jeff could’ve still lost and got a feud, Kross could’ve destroyed him and causes a count out and he keeps beating Jeff down. Having an unbeaten streak beaten like they did, was extremely dumb.

 

[Chris]

Poor Vince was just trying to cater to the internet fans that hate Kross for reasons

 

[RDK]

Kross lost in 2 minutes on his RAW debut? lol

 

[Chris]

To a man that lost to Veer on Main Event in 4 minutes a month or so ago in the last match I've aeen him in lol

The NXT Champion lost in 2 minutes on his debut. The story is shit already and makes no sense. The undefeated monster from NXT just lost in 2 minutes. Also you want to start a story:

1: Have Kross attack Hardy after a match
2: Have Kross interrupt a Hardy promo
3: Have Kross attack Hardy during a match

I could go on and probably think of even more methods that would have told a story if you wanted to start a feud between the two. The debut was dumb as fuck and there is no defense for it. You have a guy on NXT who is being built as an unbeatable monster and they just pinned in a two minute match.

Wrestling fans never want to enjoy the ride. Obviously something is going to happen with him and Hardy.

Also this can get in the bin too. If people didn't want long term stories they wouldn't like Roman's work or Page vs Omega. People enjoy the ride when a story is good. Kross losing in two minutes was just dumb as balls.

The story is NXT is no longer a 3rd brand and back to being developmental I think

 

[Chris]

Charlotte stopped counting her NXT titles again tonight too lol made it a point even by naming the other titles she's won to get to 11

The story is don't pay attention to NXT if you watch Raw
