WWE could book this storyline for the future as well. WWE Champion Drew McIntyre is not looking good with his skull fracture.

The other side of the coin is really predictable. The ‘Legend Killer’ buries the NXT newbie and goes after the WWE Champion. Randy has the experience and WWE will surely utilize it.
However, we really don’t think WWE will let Keith Lee wander into oblivion. Keith Lee will later go after whoever the Champion is in the future.
There is a huge possibility that the WWE Champion Drew McIntyre makes an appearance at WWE Payback. He will only be a distraction in the match.
