Speaking of which, this was the perfect way in which to keep both Bray Wyatt and Roman Reigns looking strong, not to mention allow their feud to keep motoring along as the weeks progress and things get closer to SummerSlam. There are rumours that none other than Sting could become involved in such a rivalry, which would heat things up, but all eyes were on Luke Harper at Battleground.

Fans seemed to enjoy seeing the big man again, even if it was obvious that - despite his attempts to hide his identity with a hoodie - he was the hooded dude who shoved Roman Reigns into the ring post outside the squared circle. Truth be told, Harper was less-than-effective away from Wyatt, as his overall appearance and character really fit being Bray's minion.

Dropping the hood and revealing that it was in fact he, Harper got a good reception from the fans, even though pretty much everybody had figured out who this 'mystery figure' was. The best thing about the guy's return is that it keeps things unpredictable around Bray Wyatt, who really excels when he has backup. It's understandable that WWE would want him to fly solo, but it makes sense that he'd have followers.
