In case you didn't know...
Sullivan has swept aside every challenger in his path over the past few months and finally earned his shot at the NXT Champion in Chicago where he was mere seconds away from winning that title.
Instead, it was Black who came out on top on the night after he connected with the Black Mass heel kick and it was later reported that Sullivan suffered a broken jaw as part of their match and has been missing from NXT TV since.
The heart of the matter
Despite his injury, Sullivan only needed a month on the sidelines, since he returned to action at the recent NXT live event in Ocala, Florida. Sullivan defeated Dan Matha with the Freak Accident before picking up the confidence-boosting victory which can only mean that he's looking to pick up where he left off.
Sullivan didn't show any kind of ring rust throughout the match and once again was able to easily defeat his opponent as he continues to look like the next big monster in WWE.
What's next?
Lars Sullivan has been missing from NXT TV now for over a month and in that time the NXT Championship picture has moved forward without him. Tomasso Ciampa and Aleister Black have now opened up a feud heading into Takeover: Brooklyn next month, so it will be interesting to see where Sullivan makes his return and who he will feud with next.
