Last Match: vs. Cedric Alexander (25 October Raw)

This 'Bearcat' has roared for the last time, at least on WWE screens.

Keith Lee is another former NXT Champion who fell victim to the whims of McMahon when he tried to reach out and take Raw's scene by the short n' curlies. WWE blatantly didn't know how to book Lee at his 'Limitless' best, and they never seemed too comfortable with the fact that he doesn't have rippling abs.

Maybe not, but the dude can work his arse off and deserves respect for the way he moves inside a wrestling ring. Bell-to-bell, big Keith is magic. That was never presented very well at all on Raw, and now he's on the market for other promotions.

You know what to do, Tony Khan.
