Luke Harper’s elevation to SmackDown’s main event scene had left some hoping for a dream match-up against the man who nurtured him during his early days on the main roster, Bray Wyatt.
The fact the duo could have feuded over the WWE Championship would have made things even sweeter, but instead, it looks like Harper is set for a dramatic return to The Wyatt Family.
Randy Orton’s actions on SmackDown this past Tuesday pretty much guaranteed it will be Orton vs. Wyatt for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania.
But Ortman reported this week that fans can instead expect to see Harper move back into The Wyatt Family rather than attempt to take down Bray.
This is a strange move. It makes little sense given how Harper appeared to be on the cusp of a major push, and it seems those plans have now been pushed back.
