WWE is dealing with a big headache for the past couple of days regarding a new monster on the roster. Lars Sullivan is the concerned name who has been part of constant backlash on the social media as racist comments from him surfaced in public. It goes way back when he was nowhere near the WWE territory but the question remains whether WWE officials will take a step against him.

Will WWE Take Actions To Lars Sullivan For Racial Comments?
Lars was In Trouble After Sexual Comments On Stephanie McMahon
Going by the history of the company, it is unlikely that they’d just sit back there and do nothing. But then again Lars Sullivan is the character who’s on the verge of getting a monster push as Braun Strowman received at one point. Punishing him may ruin his entire career that has just started to kick-start. So what could be the likely step taken by Vince McMahon and Co?
First and foremost, Lars Sullivan is firmly aware of the misdeeds conducted from years ago and he apologized for that. This could be the most valiant thing that saves him from getting punishments from WWE despite them being extremely strict towards those who have made racial comments in the past.
Here’s what Lars has commented on this burning issue by releasing the statement,
“There is no excuse for the inappropriate remarks that I made years ago. They do not reflect my personal beliefs nor who I am today, and I apologize to anyone I offended.”
By the feedback of the fans, they are not buying this comment and it’s not good enough to stop them from fuming.
However, WrestleVotes has provided an update stating that WWE officials might not take any step on Lars Sullivan. They just want the situation to pass by and everything may become okay for the new resident monster on Smackdown. WWE is not likely to take any steps potentially to protect his future.
This is not the first time that Lars Sullivan is giving trouble to the WWE officials. Prior to this, some sexual remarks from him surfaced online towards none other than Stephanie McMahon. Later, he reportedly suffered from some anxiety issues during his original debut time in January. WWE had to cancel all the plans regarding him and push back his debut for the night after Wrestlemania 35.
