Lars Sullivan is NXT's next big thing

Standing at 6ft 2in tall and weighing in at 306 lbs, NXT Superstar Lars Sullivan has all the attributes to be a major success on WWE’s main roster one day.

“The Leviathan” defeated Kassius Ohno in the biggest match of his career at TakeOver: War Games in November 2017 and has continued to wreak havoc on NXT programming in the weeks leading up to TakeOver: Philadelphia.

So far, all we know about Sullivan is that he’s one of the hottest prospects to come out of NXT in a long time and that he is often compared to Braun Strowman and Brock Lesnar. However, fans haven't been given too much information about the man behind the character.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at five things about Lars, real name Dylan Miley, that you probably haven’t heard before.

Although Lars Sullivan is believed to have started at the Performance Center in October 2014, he was officially signed by WWE after an impressive tryout in October 2013.

That’s the same time that WWE decided to take a chance on former New England Patriots and Los Angeles Lakers cheerleader Leah Van Dale, now known to fans as Carmella.

While Sullivan’s in-ring career on NXT television is just getting started, “The Princess of States Island” has been a regular presence on our screens over the last three years and became the first-ever women’s Money In The Bank winner in June 2017.
