Lee was planned to take on Swerve Strickland at AEW Worlds End last year, which was to finally capitalize on the two splitting almost one year prior. Unfortunately in the days prior to the match, Lee was sidelined and has not returned. He’s not been a regular in TV tapings in quite some time and hasn’t been factored in creatively.

Keith Lee remains on the AEW roster and is still under contract with the company. We wish him well in his recovery.
