10 Worst WWE Draft Picks Ever

10. Lars Sullivan

2019 - Drafted to SmackDown

The 2019 WWE Superstar Shake-Up was different to drafts we'd seen before. Instead of making the announcements live, most of them were either shared on social media or declared on commentary when new acquisitions unexpectedly made their way to the ring. Definitely not as fun as the good old days when brand warfare mattered.

Lars Sullivan debuted on Raw in January, but didn't have a match before he was drafted to SmackDown in April. He lost to Lucha House Party at Super Show-Down, then turn up on Raw again in June to take on the same opponents. Unfortunately for him, a severe knee injury put Lars on the shelf until 2020. He missed the next draft, then returned on SmackDown before being released in 2021.

Jumping between brands isn't the best way to get a new wrestler over, with this stop-start approach cooling any interest fans had in watching Lars have a long run on either show. Besides, having courted controversy away from the ring, fans just didn't want to see Sullivan anymore.

He quietly retired from wrestling after leaving WWE, never to be seen again. The 'E had been working on Lars for five years when they pushed him to the main roster; it really was a waste of time for everybody involved.
