Both The Wyatt Family and The Club have been splintered by the WWE Draft. In a sense, it's a shame for both, but it's an even greater one for the latter group. Together, AJ Styles, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson were building up some nice steam on the microphone, mainly focusing on the whole 'beat up John Cena' line.

Now, they've been put on separate brands, AJ going to SmackDown and the tag-team heavies working on Raw. At Battleground, they unite for the last time in the foreseeable future, taking on John Cena and his eccentric partners, Enzo Amore and Big Cass in a bumper six-man tag match.

Many expect that Cena vs. Styles will take place again at SummerSlam, but the question remains how WWE get there. One solution (and shock moment) could come when Gallows and Anderson actually walk out on AJ and leave him to the wolves.

Motivation for this could be revealed later, possibly with the team linking up to Finn Balor on Raw and telling of their lost faith in AJ as a leader.
