Keith Lee has been maintaining a distance from in-ring action for quite a while now. Given Lee’s quick ascent to the top, his absence from WWE since February raised quite a few questions about his future. While fans were hopeful of his return, silence from his side kept the uncertainty rising each day.
However, after a long period of keeping everyone in the blind spot, he took to Twitter to clear the air. The short yet substantial message addressed towards his fans expressed his appreciation for them. The former NXT Champion revealed that he’ll be returning to action soon.
Keith Lee sort of delivered a determined message, “I miss you guys, as well as all the others that expressed this sentiment… whether in dm’s, tweets, or comments. I miss you all. But do not fret. I will fight like no other to return…and when I do, we got a LOT of ground to cover.”
