Keith Lee has been on the main roster for a few months now. However, he has never had a satisfying finish to his matches, with most of his bouts ending in chaos. After acting as a third wheel for WWE’s heavyweights Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre, Lee is now pitted against Braun Strowman [http://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/braun-strowman]. Strowman was recently drafted to WWE Raw. The former Universal Champion is definitely a good contender to uplift the ‘Limitless one.’ Braun Strowman and Keith Lee faced off in a short but exciting “exhibition match” last week on Raw, and both men crashed through various tables and barriers. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/8ff49-15745415436132-800.jpg] They will brawl again in the “Battle of the Titans” on next Monday’s Raw season premiere. Keith Lee promoted the match on his Twitter handle – The match is being built as one of the highlights of next week. This week, Strowman faced Roman Reigns for the Universal Title but unfortunately submitted to Reigns’ guillotine hold.

He even teased a cameo when he tweeted – However, Lee opted for in-house entertainment. Like thousands, he also saw the event from his home. In the main event, Strowman put a great fight to capture the Universal Title. He lost it to Bray Wyatt at SummerSlam, and Reigns pinned him to win the title at Payback. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/roman-reigns-braun-strowman-4.jpg] After a great fight, Roman Reigns caught Strowman with a guillotine hold. Even though he tried to fight, the Monster among Men passed out from the submission hold. Showing no respite, Roman Reigns slammed him with chair shots to prove his dominance over the heavyweight. Lee weighed in on the situation after SmackDown got over – Hopefully, Strowman will be medically cleared by Monday and will be able to face Keith Lee on the season premiere. 

Ahead of Monday Night Raw's season premiere on Fox Network, WWE has announced a
huge match between Keith Lee and Braun Strowman.

<h2>Keith Lee 2021: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements</h2>
If Powerhouse had a living embodiment, then Keith Lee would surely be that. Rising from the anvils of professional wrestling, Lee is now the hammer that delivers sweet justice to all those that cross his path.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://thumbor.forbes.com/thumbor/fit-in/1200x0/filters%3Aformat%28jpg%29/https%3A%2F%2Fspecials-images.forbesimg.com%2Fimageserve%2F5ef28f33c708900006e39e2e%2F0x0.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" data-noaft="1" />

The Superstar has made it big in under a decade and caught the eye of WWE through his enormous size and physique. Keith Lee is the one to watch out for as he smashes his way through the main roster.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h2>History</h2>
As a young boy, Keith Lee was introduced to professional Wrestling by his grandmother, who was a fan of the sport. His early blend with wrestling influenced his decision of perusing it as a career later.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://www.si.com/.image/t_share/MTY3ODE0OTg5NDEzODg1MjAx/keith-lee-wwe-nxt-interview.jpg" alt="WWE's Keith Lee brings unique style of wrestling to NXT - Sports Illustrated" data-noaft="1" />

Lee credits his grandmother for his entire career, and the reason he decided to take that path. Unlike most wrestlers, he took his own name as a ring name.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h2>ROH (2015-2017)</h2>
Lee began working with ROH and appeared on the promotion’s shows several times. He participated in the tag team format with Shane Taylor and the duo called themselves the “Pretty Boy Killer” or PBK in short.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/bpYRvcoc0iE/maxresdefault.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" data-noaft="1" />

PBK had several shots at the ROH World Tag Team Championships but were unsuccessful in the pursuit. Later, Lee and Taylor worked on a feud with the Briscoe Brothers.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

While Taylor announced that he had signed a contract with ROH, Lee announced that he was parting ways with the promotion. He made his last appearance in a no-contest match against the Briscoe Brothers.

<h2>Evolve (2017-2018)</h2>
Keith Lee moved on to Evolve and made his debut in the promotion at Evolve 76. Signing a contract, he spent that year fighting in winning efforts at Evolve 76 and Evolve 78.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/duS2fhaUfvO2OKhLh2YsNaZFMRg=/0x0:1366x768/1200x800/filters:focal(574x275:792x493)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/57150969/evolve94.0.png" alt="" width="1200" height="800" data-noaft="1" />

However, he was halted at Evolve 87 when he challenged Matt Riddle for the WWN Championship. Not backing down, Lee challenged the Champion once more and took him down at Evolve 94.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

This was the first-ever title that Lee won as a Professional wrestler. He held on to the title for nearly 6 months before losing it to Austin Theory at Evolve 103.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://wrestlingdesk.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/lee-ohno-1000x600.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="600" data-noaft="1" />
<h2>Pro Wrestling Guerrilla<span class="Apple-converted-space"> (2017-2018)</span></h2>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CQ60WdUzb0U/maxresdefault.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" data-noaft="1" />

His match against Donovan Dijak was rated 5-stars by Dave Meltzer- a rare achievement. He then went on to defeat Chuck Taylor at "Time Is a Flat Circle" to become the PWG World Champion. Lee lost the title at All-Star Weekend in 2018 to Walter in a Triple Threat Match with Jonah Rock.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h2>WWE (2018-Present day)</h2>
Before it all started, Keith Lee actually had a tryout at WWE in 2008. He also appeared for an episode of Raw as a security guard in 2009. However, the Keith Lee we know signed the NXT contract on May 1, 2018.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

Keith Lee went on to appear several times in NXT, picking up victories over Luke Menzies and Kona Reeves before being stopped by Lars Sullivan.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

After suffering a minor injury setback, Lee came back to be a major figure in Team NXT as the brand took on Raw and SmackDown at Survivor Series 2019.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://wwe-news.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/KeithLee_DrewMcIntyre.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="1200" data-noaft="1" />

Keith Lee was even part of NXT TakeOver: WarGames and was in Tommaso Ciampa’s team that beat the Undisputed Era. He then went on to fight valiantly in the brand wars and made it as the last standing member of Team NXT.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://s1.dmcdn.net/v/RvdR61U8PPj9TzOS3/x1080" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" data-noaft="1" />

However, he was eliminated by Roman Reigns, who won the fight for Team SmackDown. Lee then returned to NXT and now had a better vigor about him.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

The big man defeated Damien Priest, Dominik Dijakovic, and Cameron Grimes in a Fatal Four-Way match to become the Number one contender for the NXT North American Championship. He then ran through Roderick Strong to win the same.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://static2.thesportsterimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Keith-Lee-NA-Champion-Cropped.jpg" alt="" width="1710" height="900" data-noaft="1" />

Lee appeared at Royal Rumble 2020 and made a huge impact before being eliminated by Brock Lesnar. He went back to NXT to hold on to his title by fending off Dijakovic and Johnny Gargano at NXT TakeOver: Portland and NXT TakeOver In Your House, respectively.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

Keith Lee made history when he defeated dominant NXT Champion, Adam Cole, at The Great American Bash becoming the first Superstar to hold the NXT North American Champion and NXT Championship at the same time.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

However, Lee didn’t manage to stay on top for long. He relinquished his North American title first on July 22, 2020 and was then beaten by Karrion Kross for the NXT Championship exactly one month later.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h3>Main Roster</h3>

The fight against Kross was the final one for Keith Lee in NXT. At SummerSlam, it was announced that the powerhouse would be making his way to Raw and made a debut on the following episode of the show.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

With a new ring attire and entrance music, Lee seemed ready to take on everything, and he started with the best. Igniting a feud against Randy Orton, Keith Lee made it clear that he wanted the gold.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/og_image/public/2020/08/20200824_RAW_randyLee--eaeb18b3dae602f13f7128bbe3da896a.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" data-noaft="1" />

After making quick work of Orton in a dominant display at WWE Payback, Lee wanted to challenge Drew McIntyre for his WWE Championship. However, he got involved with a newly drafted Braun Strowman instead.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

Lee’s major feud with Strowman was a perfect fight between two of the strongest in WWE. They brought the house down in both their showdowns. The two even took down the stage area after Lee speared Strowman off the ramp.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://i2.wp.com/prowrestlingtranscriptions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/060_RAW_10192020EJ_13139-bb96a8695c01049907c2c9ec80c282e4.jpg?resize=650%2C340&amp;ssl=1" alt="" width="650" height="340" data-noaft="1" />
