One thing he doesn't like is being called a good athlete for someone "his size".

To Lee, flying around the ring like he does is impressive for any athlete, not just those who happen to weigh over 300lbs. At the same time, he told ESPN how aware he is that it takes some wrestling fans by surprise when they see him work for the very first time.

There's no chance Keith could ever be held down by stereotypes when he looks like he does and moves with such grace anyway. Any hardcore WWE fans who only watch that product should prepare to see someone bigger than most fly around using Moonsaults or Canadian Destroyers during matches.

It's abnormal, sure, but then Lee is the kind of worker capable of breaking any preconceptions fans may have. He's perfect for NXT, and, a full five years on from leaving a WWE tryout knowing he had to get more worldly experience, he's earned that contract.
