How WWE hid Luke Harper before his return

The WWE Universe was stunned when Luke Harper attacked Roman Reigns during his match against Erick Rowan. The former tag-team champion was off WWE TV for a long time as he had asked for his release.

There was no hint whatsoever about his return and the move was executed to perfection. Reports suggest that Harper was contacted about this on Friday and everything was sorted very quickly.

According to PWInsider, WWE managed to hide Harper from the locker room until the very end. Nobody backstage had a clue about his return and only the top officials knew about it until it was time for Harper to go out and attack Reigns.

There is no update on his contract situation just yet and this could be just a temporary move by WWE to surprise the fans. Reports now suggest that he will be teaming up with Rowan again to take on Reigns. Daniel Bryan is expected to be the partner for Reigns but that is also just speculation at this point.
