7 Mistakes WWE Made With The 2019 Superstar Shake-Up
6. The Lars Sullivan Debacle
Lars Sullivan has had a very strange 2019 so far, to say the least.
He was originally slated to arrive on the main roster with the rest of the NXT call-ups including EC3 and Lacey Evans at the onset of the year, but reportedly, an anxiety attack delayed his debut and caused his rumored rivalry with John Cena to be scrapped. WWE ultimately held off on reintroducing him until the night after WrestleMania 35 on Raw, when he attacked Kurt Angle.
Things started to get complicated for Sullivan when he appeared on SmackDown Live that same week and attacked The Hardy Boyz, leading fans to question what brand he was assigned to. When he resurfaced on Raw the following week and laid out Rey Mysterio, it was assumed that was the show he'd be designated to from that point forward.
WWE made matters even more confusing when he showed up on SmackDown the very next night to seemingly kick off a feud with R-Truth and Carmella. WWE.com officially listed him as a member of the blue brand later that evening, but of course, that could change eventually.
Are NXT, NXT UK and 205 Live also in his sights?
