WWE's Keith Lee Shoots On His NXT > Raw Transition
How does big Keith really feel about his brand jump?
Keith Lee believes the "magnitude was astronomical" when he confronted the likes of Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre on Raw during his first few weeks on the show. Then, the former NXT favourite described his jump from that brand to WWE's flagship as something that "felt natural".
These comments came during a recent interview with Sportsnet.
Lee did also describe the change of scenery as "a very large transition", but says he has enjoyed the ride thus far. He didn't go in-depth on negative feedback from fans on social media about his new entrance music, ring attire or booking.
Instead, big Keith preferred to focus on being grateful for the opportunity to showcase his skills in front of a larger audience, and he was flattered that WWE management thought enough of him to mix it with Drew and Randy on screen.
That's a refreshingly positive way of looking at things.
Lee added that having a few friends backstage on Raw made the leap from NXT a little easier. He's a "fairly confident guy" anyway, but having some friendly faces there to greet him made the process better.
