Predicting the next 5 NXT North American Champions

#3 Keith Lee

Keith Lee is already a fan favorite in NXT — Keith Lee is already a fan favourite in NXT

Noticed how I mentioned that The Velveteen Dream has shared the ring with almost every top WWE superstar till date? That indeed is true considering Dream has faced-off against almost every single one of NXT's top signees and at this rate, it'll only be a matter of few months before Dream steps into the ring with NXT's newest sensation, Keith Lee.

Keith Lee is an absolute beast and has already developed himself as a fan favorite in the WWE. Therefore, it is almost for sure that the former PWG World Champion doesn't have to wait for too long before getting his first shot at NXT gold.

A match between Lee and Dream will be amazing and in the past, the two men have proved that they are more than capable of adapting to any particular in-ring style. So fans could very well expect The Velveteen Dream to bask in Keith Lee's glory and eventually get his hands on the NXT North American Championship.
