It does not look like wolf spider to me. Maybe Ctenid??
Does it climb on the walls??
Take a look at the eyes. Ctenids have 4 small eyes in front of theire head.
Also if they can climb on smooth surfaces like glass and plastic is more than likely ctenid.

Looks like a Hogna helluo to me...but then again, I'm not an expert. But, from what I've seen, it appears that this may be the exact species.

I've seen it try, and it can't climb so I think it is a wolf.
