Paid Members tiger_rick Posted October 3, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted October 3, 2014 So Raw this week featured a really good vignette in which Bray Wyatt explained how he had fxed Luke Harper and was setting him free. I was pretty surprised by it as it seemed to come out of nowhere, they certainly haven't built towards it. Â What do you think will happen now, both from the POV of the Wyatt family and Harper. Â I like Harper as a wrestler. He has plenty about him, sells well and hits a sweet-arse clothesline. He's shown he can talk a bit too. But I'm not sure how I'd develop his look and his character. The slightly balding scraggy haired look doesn't hold him back now. It might if they are to try and turn him into a serious top-level player which you'd hope would be the case otherwise there is no point splititng the family. Â Could you see him turning babyface ala Mankind? Â Will the Wyatt family replace him or even attempt to grow? Or is this the start of Bray Wyatt going it alone? Either way I worry a little for Eric Rowan who has come on a bundle in the last 18 months but might flounder on his own. Â Still, nothing else intriguing came out of Raw last week so at least this is something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Harper's probably best off on his own. As a tag team, him and Rowan have wrestled everyone too many times. As a member of the Wyatt family, he basically just runs interference in feuds that nobody cares about because Bray Wyatt himself does absolutely nothing to get anyone invested in his wins and losses.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted October 3, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted October 3, 2014 Bray Wyatt is going to be the leader of the Accession by all accounts. That's apparently the reason they are spitting Rowan and Harper from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted October 3, 2014 Moderators Share Posted October 3, 2014 Harper's fucking great. Super duper pro wrestler. Hopefully he'll do well for himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Au Posted October 3, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted October 3, 2014 It's a shame they'll never bring in the Briscoes as Wyatt Family members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon-Carr_92 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 It's an interesting way to go about it. Can't wait to see where this one goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sphinx Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Harper's fucking great. Super duper pro wrestler. Hopefully he'll do well for himself. Agreed. His mannerisms looked more genuine and less OTT than Bray. He's got a great look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members mim731 Posted October 3, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted October 3, 2014 I'd love to see them go for an updated Bruiser Brody type, wild man gimmick with Harper. He's got the looks and the talent to pull it off I reckon. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted October 3, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted October 3, 2014 Harper's glorious, I think he'll go a long way. I agree that, although Rowan has come on a good bit, he was starting at a base of "absolutely dire", and I don't know if he'd benefit from a split right now, if ever.

King Pitcos Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 The thing is, Harper could be a solo star at a time when they need them. Inconsequential tag matches are ten a penny. Rowan could always get a new partner, or if not, he's acceptable collateral damage if Harper goes onto bigger and better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted October 3, 2014 Moderators Share Posted October 3, 2014 Harper is a great wrestler from what I've seen. Â I'm a bit out of touch with current programming though - have we seen much of him talking? How is he at it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cutting Edge Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I like the idea of Wyatt 'fixing or saving' someone then setting them free, then add new guys to keep him fresh, it'll make him look like a proper cult leader. Â I hav'nt seen him wrestle but look wise I thought Sami Callihan/Solomon Crowe would've made a good 'runt' of the family like spike in the dudleys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
