The tam team match that pitted Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns against Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper was an exciting one. It featured some really impressive maneuvers by all of the men involved, including a series of out-of-the-ring maneuvers that really got the crowd excited. After a lot of back-and-forth momentum shifts, the ending saw Reigns his the Spear on Wyatt, presumably to bring an end to their feud.

This, of course begs the question, 'what's next for Ambrose, Harper and Wyatt?'

While Reigns' creative direction is more or less set in stone at this point, the remaining participants in this match have nothing left to do. Ambrose and Wyatt took part in a lengthy feud in late 2014 and early 2015, and after that, Ambrose feuded with Harper in a storyline that went nowhere. All three of these men are some of the most consistently popular athletes on the regular roster, and all of them have demonstrated that they can put on fantastic performances when it is demanded of them.

However, an important requirement in putting on good matches on a regular basis à la John-Cena-US-Title-Open-Challenge is consistent creative support. All three of these men have suffered through periods of creative indecision and purgatory, and as 2015 rolls along and we move ever closer to WrestleMania 32, all three of these men need better storylines that will give them more opportunities to connect more with the audience and grow ever further as stars.
