AEW star Keith Lee reacts to RAW Superstar calling out WWE for an opportunity
Keith Lee has responded to T-BAR after the latter tweeted about wanting an opportunity and being unhappy with his current position in WWE.
After initially being pushed through "Retribution," the former Dominik Dijakovic quickly became a mid-card act. After the faction disintegrated, things eventually fizzled out for T-BAR as he got booked mainly to put other performers over. Meanwhile, Keith Lee jumped ship over to AEW, where he's formed a tag team with Swerve Strickland.
T-BAR recently sent out a tweet that many considered to be him airing his frustrations at WWE. In a simple five-word sentence, he asked for an opportunity. Responding to this tweet, The Limitless One tagged T-BAR with a GIF from legendary sitcom The Office:

Lee and T-Bar have been friends for years and even had highly-intense matches during their pre-WWE days. In NXT, their feud resulted in some instant classic bouts such as their clash at NXT TakeOver: Portland in 2020. Later, the two joined forces to take on The Undisputed Era.

The aim of creating a wrestling masterpiece has caused these two performers to go all out everywhere they compete.
Long before NXT fans were enthralled by the two, they were tearing the house down in multiple indie promotions. To this day, many PWG and ROH fans have reminisced about the artistry they manifested.

During an appearance on AEW Unrestricted, Lee looked back on his wrestling journey with T-Bar in ROH:
''We go in there and I’m leapfrogging and dropkicking a 6’7 man in the mouth," said Lee. "We blew the roof off the place, the card was destroyed because after a match like that and we’re first after intermission, not a lot of energy left for the last couple matches."
There's no denying that T-BAR has potential and skill. He has proven himself in NXT, and it would be interesting to see if he crosses paths with Keith Lee once again in the near future.
