Lars Sullivan Returns to WWE – Terrorizes Superstars on Smackdown

In the first episode of WWE Draft, fans have been treated to some bitter-sweet surprises. First, we saw the reunion of The New Day and now, a promising talent has made a massive return.

Right after the tag match between the team of Matt Riddle and Jeff Hardy and Miz and John Morrison, former NXT heavyweight Lars Sullivan made his surprise return to the ring! Jeff Hardy and Matt Riddle were enjoying their victory on SmackDown, but Sullivan had other plans.

Sullivan attacked everyone on his way, completely destroying Riddle and Hardy. Lars continued to deliver big power moves to both Superstars. Morrison tried to pull Miz to safety, but Lars grabbed him and unloaded with big forearms.

Later, Stephanie McMahon revealed that Lars Sullivan is, in fact, a part of the WWE Draft 2020’s Superstar pool and will go in the draft on Monday.

Lars Sullivan made his long-awaited return

Lars Sullivan underwent knee surgery in June 2019. At the time, his return was not expected to happen until this year. Before the severe injury, it was rumored that he was in line for a huge push.

Unfortunately, an injury sidelined him for the next 6-9 months. This made fans speculate that he will be back in time for WrestleMania. In fact, he had been posting workout videos since February. He was probably not medically cleared after the career-threatening injury.

Before the injury, he got a massive push as a heel and feuded with the likes of Hardy Boyz and Rey Mysterio on Raw. After his transfer to SmackDown, he feuded with Lucha House Party and got injured.

Hopefully, WWE will use Sullivan efficiently and not waste his talents like many NXT Superstars before him.
