Keith Lee's "WWE NXT" success story seemed to position the star for a major main roster run, and many fans were filled with excitement for what he could accomplish on "Raw" or "SmackDown." Unfortunately, Lee's main roster run remains one of the worst call-ups in recent history, and it was largely due to his physique.

Speaking on"Talk is Jericho," Lee looked back at his run with WWE, and noted how the promotion forced him to undergo many changes, such as not performing many of the athletic moves he's known for. "I am 100% certain it was some sort of an attempt at a test or such," he said.

Additionally, even when he rebranded himself as "Bearcat" Keith Lee, the company continued to strip away his move set. "Where the double chop I've been known for, they snatched that. They didn't want me looking at the crowd at all."

However, things didn't end there for the former WWE Superstar. According to a report from"Wrestling Observer Newsletter," after Lee contracted COVID-19, his physical ability worsened and he looked visibly bigger compared to when he first got sick. Sadly, this ended up being one of the believed reasons for Lee's WWE release.Furthermore, Lee's health issues are still a cause for concern today, and he's currently not been featured for months on AEW programming due to his continued struggles.
