Predicting The 16 Teams In The 2017 NXT Dusty Rhodes Tag Classic (And How Far They Will Go)

10. Lars Sullivan & Another

Lars Sullivan is an interesting case. The man formerly known as Dylan Miley could become a huge star in NXT based on looks alone. There is something rather terrifying about the 29-year-old, and the man has got the whole freak-giant look down pat. Sullivan has been given the ‘anti-tag team’ gimmick to date, consistently beating up those unlucky enough to be booked alongside him.

Whilst Sullivan seems to be moving into a feud with No Way Jose, NXT could easily fall back into the tag team trope for the Dusty Classic. Pairing Sullivan with anyone would provide another team with an easy first round win, whether that would be confused babyfaces or opportunistic heels.

One option would be to pair Sullivan up with Jose, although that would involve a bit of storyline stretching. Sullivan could attempt to annihilate Jose, only for the big Dominican to hold his own.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
