Having received a seal of approval from both Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar during his initial appearances on the main roster, it looked as if big things were in the future for Keith Lee upon his making the jump from NXT to Raw the night after SummerSlam 2020.

Sadly, a mixture of Vince McMahon and some extremely serious health issues for Keith meant his spell on the main roster was a forgettable one.

Discounting his time in NXT, Payback 2020 was as good as it got for Limitless' WWE tenure, as that Payback saw Lee score his one and only singles win on a WWE PLE. Not just that, but that victory came against a heavy hitter in the shape of 14-time World Champion Randy Orton.

Keith would be on Raw's winning team at the Survivor Series that November, but Payback stands as the former NXT Champion's sole one-on-one PLE win from his time on the main roster. Considering how Lee was someone so many expected to see in a significant spot on PLEs for years to come once he finally made it to Raw, it's somewhat remarkable to reflect back on the Texas native's WWE run and the role Payback has to play in Keith Lee's history.
