Harper has accomplished a few things in WWE including winning the Intercontinental Championship, the NXT and the SmackDown Tag Team Titles alongside Rowan and the team of Bray Wyatt & Randy Orton. However, he has not been used to his full potential as a singles Superstar.

Despite having standout performances against superstars like John Cena, AJ Styles, Roman Reigns, Randy Orton, and even bringing out a respectable performance out of Jinder Mahal, he still has not been given an opportunity.

There was a time in which the entire WWE Universe wanted him to compete for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 33, and the opportunity was not given to him.

After years of dealing with some frustrating booking, Harper respectively requested his release and publicized that request in a post on social media in which he thanked WWE for the experience.

Not only did WWE deny his request, but they also ignored him afterwards, and refused to use him at all, and added six months to his contract from a time that he was injured.

When Harper's contract eventually expires around WrestleMania 36, there is no chance that he will resign with the company.

AEW will want to sign a talented big man like Harper, who can operate as a monster heel or a fan favorite while Harper will strive in a company that focuses more on wrestling.
