Keith Lee Talks Title Win Leaking, Wednesday Night Wars, More

Credit: WWE

NXT Champion Keith Lee talked with talkSport last week about a variety of topics including his championship win leaking to the public, the Wednesday Night Wars, and more. Check out the highlights of the conversation below.

On if the Wednesday Night Wars brings out the best in both companies:

I don’t even really think about that. It’s nice to have competition in general, but I’m always competing with myself. So it isn’t really about anyone else. It’s for Keith Lee to go out and do the best that Keith Lee can and if Keith Lee did good, how much better can Keith Lee do the next time? That’s literally my own mantra. There’s always competing with yourself.

On his championship win leaking online before it aired:

When you think about it, as you say ‘apparent leaks’, look, at the end of the day the only way someone knows what happens is when it airs. For those people that think that they’ve unloaded some big mystery or something is one thing, but the only thing that makes me sad in the scenario is how many of them are trying to ruin it for other people, because there is the potential for it. To me, it shows me how uncool some people can be, but at the end of the day, you don’t really know what’s happening until it happens and that’s just the truth of the matter.

On WWE putting him and Dominic Dijakovic in a program:

In my personal, honest opinion, I don’t think everyone within the company is always aware of things going on outside the company. So I don’t think people were actually, necessarily aware of some of the things that we were capable of as athletes. I think it was just a radical mixture of luck and circumstance and at the end of the day, them seeing something they’ve never seen before and saying ‘woah, this is a competition that probably shouldn’t be just let go so easily,’ and we got more than one opportunity.
