After being let go by WWE last November and his non-compete clause expiring earlier this month, Keith Lee signed with AEW as he made his promotional debut last night on Dynamite where he beat Isiah Kassidy in the Face of the Revolution qualifying match.
The former NXT Champion commented on joining the promotion by writing the following on Twitter:
We got a lot of work to do still. But I more than appreciate the warm welcome back.
The person with the sign that had the same silhouette that's on the front of my hoodie…. thank you. Touched my soul.
And with sad family times hopefully behind me….let's grind. #ForwardMarch
