Keith Lee Now Has Nickname Of "Bearcat"

During the dark match before tonight’s episode of WWE Raw, Keith Lee wrestled and was announced as "Bearcat" Keith Lee. This is noteworthy because it might be an homage to Bearcat Wright, the first black heavyweight champion in wrestling history.

There has been talks of having Lee return as a heel, with him updating his look to have facial hair as of late.

However, despite this, Lee is still wrestling as a babyface in these dark matches.

Linked below is a tweet featuring footage of the entrance in which the announcer uses Lee's new nickname.
