WWE Draft 2020: 10 Wrestlers Who Must NOT Move Brands

8. Keith Lee

Keith Lee may not be the most obvious entry on this list but after thinking about it for a moment or two, he really should be. Why? Well because he only just left his home at NXT to move to Raw a few weeks back.

That debut on the main roster has been marred in controversy because of the fact that the company randomly decided to repackage him with new music and new ring-gear, taking away some of the elements that made fans love him in the first place. And yet, for a moment there, it seemed he was destined to overcome those very obstacles WWE created for him as his decisive win over Randy Orton at Payback made him seem like a legitimate star. Unfortunately, he's kind of gotten lost in the melee of Orton's program with Drew McIntyre ever since.

It is generally accepted that younger talent tends to flourish on SmackDown, but to move Lee there so soon after calling him up to Raw would be like admitting defeat - and we all know WWE doesn't like to do that. No, what they must do is iron out all the kinks they created for him and allow him to continue to impress in the ring like he did during his matches with Randy Orton. Then a move to the blue brand at a later date would be most welcome.
