Vince McMahon wanted to send Keith Lee back to the Performance Center

Keith Lee moved from WWE NXT to WWE Raw in 2020, and immediately, he was put in a storyline with Randy Orton. He defeated Orton and made headlines for weeks afterwards.

Not only did Lee work storylines with top Superstars on the main roster, he had new gear as well.

Unfortunately, Vince McMahon reportedly wanted to send Keith Lee back to the Performance Center because he believed the Superstar needed to brush up on his skills.

This is when questions arose about why WWE moved him in the first place if he needed to brush up on his skills. Apparently, McMahon hadn’t actually seen Keith Lee wrestle at NXT. It was only afterwards when he started working on the red brand that McMahon realized more work was needed.

It’s been a while since ‘The Limitless One’ has been in WWE. In fact, Lee has broken his silence about his absence and has revealed he will fight for his return, and when he does, he will explain the absence.
