WWE changed the theme song of Keith Lee as he made his first entrance as a main-roster Superstar. Unfortunately, not all his fans have reacted positively to the change. There has been heavy criticism of the same on social media, as enraged Lee fans blast the company for allegedly watering down the hype around his big debut.

Lee used his WWE NXT theme song for over two years. It had made quite an impact on his fans. Hence, a change in the theme song might be insignificant to most, but that is not the case with fans who used to enjoy humming along whenever the song started playing.

More importantly, Keith Lee himself rapped to a generic blend of rock in one of the parts of the song. Needless to say, it would have taken some rounds of discussion before implementing this big decision. This ultimately shows the level of micromanagement that persists in WWE.

There is another reason why Keith Lee wants to address the music issue and get it over with. This is because of the bigger topic at hand. He believes that if fans and audience focus on the small thing, then the primary topic of conversation will slip the mind.

The Limitless One wants his audience and fans to focus on his main roster debut instead of the theme song. The fact that he challenged Randy Orton in his first match ever means a lot to the young star.

Randy Orton is one of the leading heels in WWE. Thus, starting his main roster run with a match against ‘The Viper’ was definitely a much bigger deal than the theme song change.
