10 Directions WWE Can Go After Battleground 2015

5. Build Up Luke Harper As Reigns' Equal

Luke Harper's initial signing with the WWE was met with considerable fanfare from the indie wrestling community, especially given his high-octane work with Chikara under the name of Brodie Lee. He essentially portrayed the same character on the indies: a grubby hillbilly with surprising agility and a ferocious, hard-hitting offence. Unfortunately, his pairing with the considerably less-talented Eric Rowan made him little more than an intimidating bodyguard. Now back in the spotlight, having reunited with former mentor Bray Wyatt (but without Rowan, so far), Harper's revival could make him the promotion's next big heel. His interference in the Wyatt vs Reigns bout should be used to inject him meaningfully into their feud, not merely as a henchman, but as Roman's main rival. With Wyatt acting as the sideline puppet-master, Harper and Reigns could enjoy a number of great matches - especially considering their similar statures and styles.
