#1 Return as part of Bludgeon Brothers
Luke Harper and Erick Rowan were repackaged as the Bludgeon Brothers on SmackDown Live before WrestleMania 34 last year. They even won the Tag Team Championships at The Show of Shows and even had a dominant run as Champions. An unfortunate injury to Rowan led to an abrupt end to their title reign. Even Harper (who was written off TV) suffered a hand injury soon.
The fans expected the Bludgeon Brothers to return before WrestleMania 35 but WWE put an end to that gimmick by presenting Rowan as Daniel Bryan's sidekick. Adding Luke Harper to that alliance may have made sense, however, WWE chose to keep the former SmackDown tag team champion away from WWE TV.
Looking at where we stand after WrestleMania 35, I think it would have been a better idea to have Harper and Rowan back as Bludgeon Brothers. As for Rowan's role as Daniel Bryan's insurance policy, WWE could have used any other Superstar from their stacked roster to do that job.

In my view, WWE committed a huge blunder by scrapping the Bludgeon Brothers gimmick. If they continued their gimmicks, it may not have led to Harper's release today.
