Keith Lee took to social media following his WWE release last week and issued a statement where he claimed he paid his own medical expenses while he was away from the ring. Lee noted that he “paid all my medical bills from the many offices and machines I frequented”.
WWE has since issued a statement on these claims, which reads,
”Keith Lee’s recent comments implying WWE failed to pay his medical bills are erroneous.
WWE has an extensive healthcare program for the medical care of its in-ring performers and Mr. Lee was part of this program while with the company.
Should Mr. Lee have any concerns over the payment of medical bills, he is welcome to address them with WWE.”
As of this writing, Lee has not responded to the WWE statement.
