Someone posted the historical connection in the first page and I can respect that. However, the only thing I can think of when I see bearcat is Avatar: The Last Airbender.

You think this is bad, wait about 3 months when he's just The Bearcat.

It seems like I'm in the minority, but I don't really like it. It's just so unnecessary. The guys name is Keith Lee, that's it, no need to change anything. At least that's my opinion. Keith Lee was such a ready made superstar, Vince took one look and The mileage this scene has given us and will continue to give us for many many years to come is amazing. Vince really thought this was some profound shit to say in front of a cameras and instead it's becoming the perfect summation of everything wrong with his approach.

VINCE: When I say jump, I want you to say, "I'll wear and say whatever you want Mr. McMahon. You want to change my identity? What a great idea, Mr. McMahon! You're going to give me a prop? Awesome, I hope it is marketable and we can sell replicas to children. I am not and never will be bigger than the WWE, and I cannot thank you for this once in a lifetime opportunity, Mr. McMahon!"

TBH that second line honestly just gives me credence to think he’s genuinely “not there” anymore. You think this is bad, wait about 3 months when he's just The Bearcat. You think this is bad, wait about three months, one hour and 20 minutes when he’s just The Cat.

Keith Lee was such a ready made superstar, Vince took one look and Reminds me of that one Parks and Rec quote. "Here's to you, Joey, and your mother and to every Pawnee citizen who might have a bright future if they fundamentally change everything about themselves."

So Booker T said on his radio show that he’s not sure if he can trust Keith Lee with a big push because of his past incidents.
Those past issues being “having a heart condition as a result of getting COVID in one of the disease’s hotbeds and almost dying from it”. Yes, I too would go “maybe he’s not ready for the big time” if I were the head of a company.
EDIT: Here are the quotes in context
And again, it needs to be said, Keith Lee said he was at risk of death from this condition.

Everyone should laugh in Booker's face every time he says something.
Long and exaggerated laughs. Until he gets offended.

In the sense of how will Keith Lee hold up health wise after that huge scare? I could see marginally what Booker T would say. Because we have no clue truly yet how that may have effected Keith Lee's in ring ability from this point on since he's only still wrestled like three or four times since.
Him however saying "I can't trust him with a big push" like that's somehow his fault when the guy got COVID which caused a heart issue? That's so tone deaf and whether he meant it or not... Booker comes off really bad there.

Seeing the full quote...
I'd just like to point out that the guy who has had the Universal title for over a year has twice survived leukemia.

Booker T has maybe pissed away more respect and good will than any other living wrestler in the past few years for something that isn't a sex crime. Just astounding to me how every time he opens his mouth it's the abject worst thing.
