Keith Lee lost his title to Karrion Kross but there was a lot of support coming from Mia Yim
Keith Lee was in a huge battle at NXT TakeOver: XXX against Karrion Kross.
Lee defended his NXT title against Doomsday, and it was Kross who came out on top in this clash. The Limitless One gave it his all in this clash, however, it wasn’t enough for him.
Doomsday celebrated the win with his better half, Scarlett Bordeaux, while Lee’s also had a message for him.
Mia Yim and Keith Lee have been going strong over the past few months in WWE, and they have been involved in a couple of storylines too.
While Yim didn’t have much to do in the rivalry between Kross and Lee, she did have a positive message for her man.
Yim claimed that Lee was still the champion and she was proud of him:
Win or lose, you are my champion for life. Proud of you. 💙 #Yimitless #NXTakeOver pic.twitter.com/BM11Gq0ge2

Yim and Lee had battled Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae a while back, but this is a tough time for Lee.
The Limitless One gave up his North American title to concentrate on defending the NXT title. However, that didn’t go as planned. Lee lost his crown but he could still be in the running for it.
Kross injury makes a mess of plans
Yim could still see her man, Lee, become a champion again despite this loss. Kross picked up a serious shoulder injury and the extent of the damage is yet to be known.
Kross is to have an MRI on Monday and if he is out for long, he could be out of action for a long time. WWE would then have to find a new champion and Lee should be in the running for that. They might not hand Lee the title right away but he should have a chance of winning it back.
Lee should have been given a rematch against Kross, but that might not happen if the injury is severe.
