Holy f*** did that man look made tonight. A true beastly performance especially during the opening minutes of the match.

I think it kind of would have worked better had we not seen essentially the same exact dynamic earlier in the show with Konnor, though both of them did well tonight and came off the most threatening they have pretty much ever.

I kind of enjoy that Harper is the member of the Wyatt family throwing himself into the WWE title mix. The other two have the tag titles so maybe he's like why not? Really though, I hope they start letting him branch out more and wreck some people.

I think that was the type of performance that might get him a push in the near future.

Really loved that match and it looked to me like the match was designed to declare that WWE gets it now and that Harper's gonna be more than just a lackey from here on in.

Luke Harper vs Cesaro in a "f***ing let these men shine already" match at WM Please no, Cesaro is damaged goods, beating him will not do Luke any favours. Harper v Ambrose maybe.

Since they won't give him a WWE title match, how about an IC title match? The guy is good and has been for a while.

It has to be a matter of When and not If at this point for Harper, he is TOO GOOD and Smackdown needs the talent right now in so many ways...
Him being the Main Event and Bray and Orton dominating the Tag Division is perfect to me if they keep doing it.

He needs to keep building up on good performances. The ability is there and it seems people in the back is taking more notice.
I look forward to his eventual departure from the Wyatt Family and him being on his own

This guy has been undervalued by WWE for years. I really enjoy his in ring work and he has a great look. WWE need to let Harper shine.

The guy has always been great. They just don't want to see it.
I love that the crowd was behind him too.

Love it that the Philly crowd didn't get 'rowdy' until Harper was eliminated from the 4-Way, they had been civil and very conforming to WWE's scripted results until then #smarks

I was really pulling for him to win the whole thing. Him and AJ would've been amazing. To be honest, I kind of tuned out after he was eliminated.

Hopefully this elevates him. Though I'm pretty sure he's going to continue to be used as "Wyatt's able bodied and intimidating jobber" which sucks. He should be the new Kane, IMO. He's awesome.

It's the best he has looked since he's been back but he should be way more protected than he is.
They can't seem to have more than one monster at a time and I get the logic in it but there's no reason why you can't have both Harper and Corbin (for example) just annihilating dudes. It'll make for a special moment when they eventually square off but instead they'll book these guys like scrubs but have the announcers hype up these confrontations like you haven't been watching for the past year.

Love Harper, the guy has..."it."
But say he breaks off from Wyatt or has a face turn or what have you; is he stuck as the creepy swamp dweller?
Does a music and gear change put and keep him on that next level? I know he's worn them, but he would look weird as hell in trunks. Maybe long tights.
Can he work as a potential WWE Champion in old jeans and a sweaty dirty wifebeater who hardly talks? Or would he need a character change or tweak?
NOT like they tried with Rowan.

He has wrestled in a dirty wifebeater and jeans before WWE but as a psychotic truck driver. Plus you have Ambrose and Kevin Owens rocking very indie non conventional looks into WWE success
