10 WWE Stars Who Can’t Be Happy Right Now

There was potential to turn Luke Harper into something more than a Wyatt Family follower once Bray Wyatt fled to Raw. There's a hole on SmackDown perfect for a big man to fill, and yet Harper has been on the outside looking in ever since the feud between Wyatt and Randy Orton ended.

Last seen beating ex-partner Erick Rowan at Backlash in May, Harper has been ignored ever since. There were even some news reports speculating that both he and Rowan would be repackaged as a new tag-team on the blue brand. Should that happen, it represents hope for Harper, because he's been doing precious little and that has to be frustrating.

There's no good reason for Harper's absence from TV. He has an interesting look, can work better than most men his size, and has shown a connection with fans in the past. That should be enough for a regular spot on SmackDown, but something is stopping the creative team from using Harper.
