Keith Lee has been a hot topic in the wrestling world for months now due to his absence from WWE programming, and over the last few months he’s been posting cryptic tweets.
There are a lot of people wondering what’s next for Keith Lee’s career, but Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful recently reported that there is no truth to rumors of Lee getting released from WWE.
WWE officials and talent have both confirmed to me that Keith Lee has not been released, debunking a vague rumor that was gaining steam this afternoon.

Keith Lee hasn’t appeared on WWE programming since February. He was originally set to face Riddle and Bobby Lashley in a triple threat match for the US Title at the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view, but announced that Lee had been pulled from the match due to injury.
At this point it’s not clear when the former NXT Champion could be returning. Stay tuned for updates.
Good question. Unfortunately, only time will tell my friend. https://t.co/jINQnovu66
