Update on Keith Lee’s AEW Status After 9 Month Absence – A new report sheds light on Keith Lee’s status, as he has not competed in over nine months. Lee last wrestled on the December 23, 2023, episode of AEW Collision, where he defeated Brian Cage. He was originally scheduled to face Swerve Strickland at AEW Worlds End, but was unable to compete, and has remained out of action since then.
According to Fightful Select, Keith Lee has still not been cleared to return to the ring due to an undisclosed medical issue. The report indicates that Lee is not yet ready to make his comeback, and his in-ring future remains uncertain at this point.
Lee has reportedly not been a regular at AEW TV tapings for quite some time, and he hasn’t been involved in any creative plans as a result. Despite his absence, Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp confirmed that Keith Lee remains under contract with AEW and is still listed on the active roster.
Keith Lee first joined AEW in February 2022, shortly after his WWE release the previous November. His AEW run saw him capture the AEW World Tag Team Championship alongside Swerve Strickland, though their partnership ended after Strickland betrayed him, sparking a heated rivalry between the two.
As of now, there is no timeline for Keith Lee’s return to the ring, but fans are hopeful for a recovery soon. WrestlingAttitude extends their best wishes to Lee as he deals with his health issues and awaits further updates on his condition.
