WWE Rumor Roundup: Unfortunate change to WrestleMania plans for The Fiend and John Cena; McMahon personally texts 4-time World Champion to finally return; Current Champion out of WM 36- 24 February 2020

#3 Keith Lee not to be part of WrestleMania

The current NXT North-American Champion Keith Lee has impressed not just the NXT and WWE fans, but even Vince McMahon is reportedly high on the Moment Maker. But, reports are suggesting that unlike NXT Women's Champion Rhea Ripley, there are no plans for Keith Lee to be a part of WrestleMania 36.

While NXT Superstars are usually not part of the WrestleMania main card, it has been widely stated that WWE wants NXT to be part of this year's 'Mania to promote the brand.

Here is what Dave Meltzer of WON has stated:

Keith Lee is not on the card, at least yet, and he probably won't be because he will probably be on the card the night before.

Lee has had impressive outings at Survivor Series as well as Royal Rumble, and it is surprising that the company has chosen to keep such a popular face out of WrestleMania.

He recently faced Dominik Dijakovic at NXT Takeover: Portland in a spectacular match and managed to retain his Championship. We may not see Lee at WrestleMania this year, but he will surely give the fans a stellar performance at the NXT Takeover.
