Before you raise an argument about Keith Lee's debut not being a complete flop, especially if you consider that his first WWE outing is a program with Randy Orton, arguably the top heel on WWE RAW at the moment, please consider the other side of the coin too. Keith Lee's WWE RAW theme did not make too many people happy, his ring gear wasn't a big hit with fans either, and the fact that his very first match against Randy Orton ended in the manner that it did, where he actually lost because of interference doesn't bode well for the big man.
Keith Lee's promo work (this reviewer humbly admits an unfamiliarity with his work in WWE NXT) was sub-par this week on WWE RAW and moreover, Randy Orton's game seemed to be off as well, somehow. The punt kick at the top of the show missed by a mile and it was clear that somehow, Randy Orton wasn't the same guy we saw at SummerSlam, only just 24-hours prior.
