Keith Lee Reveals Honest Reaction To His WWE Release

WWE has released a number of surprising names over the last few years including former NXT Champion Keith Lee. Many fans were shocked when Lee was let go, and during a recent appearance on Busted Open Radio he noted that he wasn’t prepared for the release, but he was calm when it happened.

“I don’t think that I ever had a plan. I wasn’t prepared, I didn’t expect the very sudden change because as much as a lot of people didn’t like what I was doing at the time, in terms of fandom, every meeting in the back and to my face was very positive. It would have been extremely hard to predict any changes going on in my life that were of the magnitude that did happen.”

“I think that when it happened, I was extremely calm. I don’t think that it was because I had any sort of plan. It was more so that I had a lot of confidence, and even with sudden changes occurring and things of that sort, I was confident that one way or another, I would figure out what I needed to do to move forward and continue doing what I love to do.”

Keith Lee recently joined AEW and he will be competing in the Face Of The Revolution ladder match at the upcoming AEW Revolution pay-per-view. Stay tuned for updates.
