310 pounds of unpredictable destruction.

If Paul Heyman ever wants to find someone with Lesnar-like attributes, Lars Sullivan could certainly be the guy for him.

Lars Sullivan signed his WWE contract back in 2014 and started turning heads in 2015, at the Wrestlemania 31 Axxess event. During Axxess, Sullivan was featured in a showcase match where he defeated Marcus Louis. Following his debut, Lars began making occasional appearances at NXT house shows throughout Florida. Despite being brand new to the sport, Sullivan has a massive frame and undeniable in-ring presence that cannot be duplicated or imitated.

Lars is still a little rough around the edges and might need a little bit of time to finish honing his skills. However, he's as close to being ready as he's ever been and when he does make his debut, the 6'3", 310-pound monster will make an ideal replacement to become Paul Heyman's newest prodigy.
