Keith Lee resurfaces on social media promoting AYDA program

Professional wrestler Keith Lee has resurfaced on social media after an absence of nearly a year, sparking significant concern among fans regarding his involvement with a group led by Darius J. Wright.

Lee, who is still under contract with All Elite Wrestling (AEW) but has not competed since December 2023, posted content promoting the AYDA (Awaken Your Dormant Abilities) program. The program, led by Wright, a self-described “consciousness explorer,” focuses on topics such as out-of-body experiences and non-physical reality.

Reports from industry insiders suggest that Lee is “all in” on these teachings, indicating that his involvement is a genuine personal pursuit rather than a professional wrestling storyline. This has led to widespread speculation that Lee may have retired from active wrestling to focus on this new path.

Many fans have expressed alarm on social media, with some accusing the AYDA program of being a cult due to its spiritual claims and the financial contributions required for its various levels of instruction. Wright’s teachings include controversial views on topics such as the structure of reality and the purpose of ancient monuments.
