Rumor: Big Indy Name Signs With WWE

One more big guy. If there’s one thing WWE and NXT are known for, it’s signing up a lot of people at the drop of a hat. That’s one of the most entertaining things you’ll see in wrestling, as fans want to know who might be coming to the biggest promotion in the world. A name might come from Ring of Honor, Europe, Japan or elsewhere, but there’s always a chance that you might be seeing a top name coming into the promotion at any given time. It seems that we might have another name on the way.

In case you need a really fast crash course.

Top 30 Moves Of Keith Lee

According to PWTorch by way of WrestleZone.com, former Ring of Honor wrestler Keith Lee seems to have signed with WWE. Lee, who stands 6’3 and weighs about 330lbs, is a former Pro Wrestling Guerrilla World Champion and has wrestled for a variety of companies. He also competed in a match against Kassius Ohno at WrestleMania 34 Axxess last month. Lee currently has a few independent dates left, including a farewell show for Pro Wrestling Guerrilla later this month.

Opinion: I’m not the biggest Lee fan in the world but for someone his size, he can move incredibly well. There’s clearly some potential there and you can always use another big monster to crush people and see what you can do with them. Lee might be another guy who rarely gets past the NXT level but at least he’s going to have the chance. If it doesn’t work out, he can head right back to the independent circuit and make his name all over again. In other words, it’s a winning situation (or at least the chance to be a winning situation) all around.

What do you think of Lee? How well will he do in NXT? Let us know in the comments below.
