AEW: Keith Lee confirms top star's influence towards his AEW move.

Keith Lee recently revealed in an interview how his move to AEW was influenced by one of his great rivals in his professional wrestling career.

Talking on the AEW Unrestricted Podcast, Keith Lee discussed a plethora of topics surrounding his newly confirmed career as a member of the All Elite Wrestling roster.

However, a key talking point from this interview was who played a key factor in influencing his move to AEW after being released from WWE back in November. This being none other than Adam Cole.

Lee made it public that Cole is someone whom he values massively in the wrestling world and that it was his “testimony for happiness” that cemented his move to AEW.

Lee would further go on to talk about how talking with Cole about his comfortability in AEW overall confirmed his decision to become ALL ELITE as it made sense to his plans.

Cole and Lee’s chemistry cemented one of the most historic matches in WWE history as they collided in a winner takes all match for the NXT Championship and the North American title where Lee ended up the victor.

Keith Lee made his shocking debut on the February 9th edition of AEW Dynamite where he was the mystery opponent who faced Isiah Kassidy of Private Party for an opportunity to qualify for The Face Of The Revolution Ladder Match at the recent Revolution.

Lee, unfortunately, fell short at Revolution as Wardlow became the face of the revolution. However, Lee is building up a current perfect record in AEW as he is currently 2 and 0 in singles competition after defeating The Acclaimed’s Max Caster on last night’s AEW Rampage.
