4. Give Keith Lee a big push

No one knows for sure whether or not Lee’s extended absence is due to injury, lack of creative plans for him, or some other issue. What is certain is that he hasn’t been seen on RAW since February. That’s a strange turn of events for a wrestler who enjoyed so much success in NXT.

Assuming he’s physically capable, it’s time to get him back into a RAW ring. It’s imperative for WWE officials to start focusing on what Lee can do rather than occupying themselves to what he can’t do. No, he’s not perfect in the ring. No, he doesn’t deliver electric promos. What Lee does with startling effectiveness is use his in-ring work to get fans on his side.

The current RAW roster isn’t exactly overwhelmed with popular babyfaces. Giving Lee an interesting feud can give fans a superstar to rally around. A potential program with Sheamus for the United States Champion could be a nice mid-card feud for the show to build around.

Even if the WWE isn’t ready to put a belt on Lee, keeping him off the show doesn’t make any sense given the lack of star talent on the roster. It’s time to get the big man’s career back on track.
