Fans haven't seen Keith Lee on AEW TV since December 2023. He was scheduled to face Swerve Strickland at AEW Worlds End 2023, but it was announced before the show that he was not cleared.
Lee said he had been working through an injury since September 2022.
It is unknown if or when Lee will return to television, but he responded to a fan on social media wishing him well and hoping to see him back in an AEW ring.
"You have my appreciation. I am quite well! Only time will tell when or where, but I am confident that time will come. Have patience my friend. Lead with Love. Be well," he replied.
