I was hoping he would just never debut. Eurgh. I'm just going to avoid his matches and segments and discussion entirely, and hope to GOD they never put him in a Rumble. It's not often that I hope for a complete lack of success but I refuse to endorse the guy. He's basically a lock for a future Rumble, and they're probably gonna push the guy. Oh, and they are continuing to rehab Hulk Hogan and they're headed back to Saudi Arabia in two months. Good times!

What comments did he make about Steph? On a message board, someone posted a video of Steph and he said "Very sexy, Thanks for the fap vid". so he's aiming for a mania match vs HHH next year then?

I'm just going to avoid his matches and segments and discussion entirely. I'm holding everyone who says that to it. If you say you're not going to talk about him on here, you better mean it. I'm not going to have every thread involving him turn into the same 5-10 people going off about it.

I'm not going to have every thread involving him turn into the same 5-10 people going off about it. But I mean what are we supposed to do? We know what the f***er thinks about black people and gays and Mexicans, and that's on my mind every time I see him. I'm not willing to die on this one hill, but if it was up to me, I'd bring that shit up every time he's on TV, because it's legit on my mind, and because f*** the WWE for wanting us to just get used to him and forget about it. I don't want people to not be able to bring up, "Hey, Steve Austin is a piece of shit who beats his wife" or "The Ultimate Warrior went around spreading hateful shit for decades" either.

Very easy - don't say you're not going to talk about him and then keep talking about him. Doesn't get more simple than that.

I was a fan of JBL's character a lot but I knew he did a lot of scummy things in the past. If Lars is entertaining I can block off the news and just view him as whatever characters he is.
In my mind, if the wrestlers in the back trust him to not hurt them in the ring then I can give his character on TV a chance. I say all of this as someone who looks like the person Lars at least one time hated.

I could see his career mirroring Snitsky in ECW. Debuts in a high-profile spot, destroys a few jobbers before getting involved in a mid-card feud, elevates to a rivalry with an established star, and that's the ceiling for his career. After that, he'll be relegated to being a jobber to the stars, maybe turns face (possibly in a comedic gimmick) before quietly being shuffled off the roster for the next hoss to come along.
Let me put it this way: I'd be very surprised if he's on WrestleMania's main card by this time next year. I figure his role will have reached its full lifespan by then and he'll be involved in the pre-show Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, tossing out a few low-carders before being used as cannon fodder for a bigger name to eliminate.

With any luck, this dude gets beat by Seth or Roman and then rapidly falls down the card like Snitsky/Kozlov/Khali/etc.

Leaving aside the obviously awful part of him as a person. You can be a hoss and small,but you need to be Mark Henry or Ryback levels of looking imposing. dude looks like a less fit Snitzky Ryback always looked like a goober to me. Didn't have the right face as weird as that sounds. Brock is 6 foot 2 and he's terrifying

I don't give one single f*** about sullivan and have never watched nxt so I'm not defending him but can people not redeem themselves or move on at all from their shitty pasts?

Lars just looks like an ‘80s Russian from West Virginia. Wrestles like one, too.

Looks like we have our Brock 2.0. And people thought the first one was bad. Let’s not condemn Brock. Lesnar has been awesome for the majority of his career. Lars is probably going to be forgettable like a non grotesque Snitski
