Erick Rowan and Luke Harper is a professional wrestling tag team in WWE. They originally were the followers of Bray Wyatt, leader of the stable known as The Wyatt Family. The trio debuted on the main roster in July 2013, as a villainous group terrorizing other WWE Superstars, including Kane, Daniel Bryan (who ultimately became a member, albeit for a short period of time), The Shield, John Cena, The Usos, Chris Jericho, Big Show, Mark Henry, and Dean Ambrose. Their gimmick was about a backwoods cult; Wyatt's character has drawn comparisons to Max Cady from Cape Fear, Charles Manson and Waylon Mercy.[3][4]

During their time at WWE's developmental branch, NXT, Harper and Rowan won the NXT Tag Team Championship and have since went on to compete in two WWE Tag Team Championship matches at Money in the Bank and at Battleground, while Bray Wyatt went on to compete for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Money in the Bank.

History

Developmental territories

The character of Bray Wyatt debuted in Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) in April 2012 and initially associated himself with Eli Cottonwood.[5][6] When WWE rebranded their developmental territory into NXT Wrestling, Wyatt debuted on the fourth episode of the new NXT, defeating Aiden English in a singles match.[7] Wyatt is portrayed as an evil cult leader who believes himself to be more monster than human.[3][8][9] The character drew comparisons to Max Cady of the 1991 film Cape Fear and Waylon Mercy.[3][10]

In July, Wyatt suffered a torn pectoral muscle and required surgery.[11] Despite the injury, Wyatt continued to appear on NXT by founding a faction known as The Wyatt Family in November, with Luke Harper as his first kayfabe son and Erick Rowan as his second.[12][13][14] Harper and Rowan entered the NXT Tag Team Championship tournament to crown the inaugural champions, and they defeated Percy Watson and Yoshi Tatsu in the first round on the January 23, 2013, episode of NXT.[15] Following a win over Bo Dallas and Michael McGillicutty in the semi-finals with Wyatt's interference,[16] Harper and Rowan were defeated in the finals of the tournament by Adrian Neville and Oliver Grey.[17]

Leader Bray Wyatt often watches the rest of his Family's matches from a rocking chair.

Wyatt had his first match back from injury on the February 21 episode of NXT, defeating Yoshi Tatsu.[18] The Wyatt Family later assaulted Grey (who had suffered a legitimate injury) while Wyatt prevented Dallas from winning a NXT Championship number one contender match due to Dallas refusal to join the Wyatt Family.[19][20] Dallas went on to hand Wyatt his first loss on the March 13 episode of NXT.[21] On the May 2 episode of NXT, while Wyatt was defeated by six-time world champion Chris Jericho, Harper and Rowan won a triple threat elimination tag match by last pinning tag champion Neville to earn a shot at the titles.[22] On the May 8 NXT (taped on May 2), Harper and Rowan defeated Neville and Bo Dallas, filling in for the injured Grey, to win the NXT Tag Team Championship.[23][24]

The Wyatt Family went on to feud with Corey Graves and Kassius Ohno, with Wyatt defeating Graves on the May 22 NXT,[25] and the next week Wyatt eliminated both Graves and Ohno during an 18-man battle royal to determine the number one contender to the NXT Championship, although he was later eliminated by Adrian Neville.[26] On the June 19 NXT, The Wyatt Family defeated the team of Graves, Neville and Ohno.[27] On the next NXT, The Wyatt Family, together with Garrett Dylan and Scott Dawson, attacked Graves, Neville and Ohno; when William Regal tried to make the save, he was also overwhelmed. This led to The Wyatt Family facing Graves, Neville and Regal in a six-man tag match the next week, where Wyatt pinned Regal for the win.[28] On the July 17 NXT (taped on June 20), Harper and Rowan lost the NXT Tag Team Championship to Neville and Graves.[29][30]

Main roster

The group's signature entrance through darkness.

From the May 27, 2013 episode of Raw, WWE aired vignettes promoting the upcoming debut of The Wyatt Family.[31] The vignettes showed The Wyatt Family's backwoods origins and Rowan wearing a sheep mask.[32][33] On the July 8 episode of Raw, The Wyatt Family made their debut by assaulting Kane.[34] The Wyatt Family continued their attacks on wrestlers like R-Truth, Justin Gabriel, and 3MB (Drew McIntyre, Heath Slater, and Jinder Mahal) while sending cryptic messages to Kane asking him to "follow the buzzards".[35][36] Following another assault,[37] Kane challenged Wyatt to a Ring of Fire match at SummerSlam, which he accepted.[38] On August 18 at the pay-per-view, Wyatt defeated Kane, following interference from Harper and Rowan. After the match, Harper and Rowan again attacked Kane and ended the segment by carrying him away.[39] At Battleground, Wyatt's momentum continued with a win over Kofi Kingston.[40] On the October 11 SmackDown, Harper and Rowan suffered their first loss against Cody Rhodes and Goldust.[41]

The Wyatt Family's next feud began when they attacked Daniel Bryan and CM Punk in late October;[42] the feud saw Harper lose his first singles match to Punk.[43] At Survivor Series, Harper and Rowan lost to Bryan and Punk,[44] but the entire Wyatt Family defeated Bryan in a handicap match at TLC,[45] with Wyatt attempting to recruit Bryan in the previous weeks.[46] On the final Raw of 2013, Bryan defeated Harper and then Rowan in a gauntlet match so that he could face Wyatt, whereupon Harper and Rowan interfered for a disqualification and beat him down. A frustrated Bryan finally gave up and gave in to join The Wyatt Family.[47] However, after Bryan joined them, The Wyatt Family could not find success. This caused Wyatt to punish Bryan, leading to Bryan attacking all the other members of the Wyatt Family on the January 13 Raw to signal him breaking free of the group.[48] At the Royal Rumble, Wyatt defeated Bryan in a singles match,[49] while both Harper and Rowan entered the Royal Rumble match and they managed two and zero eliminations respectively before they were eliminated.[50]

On the January 27 episode of Raw, The Wyatt Family attacked Cena, Bryan and Sheamus during an Elimination Chamber qualifying match against The Shield, thus awarding Cena's team a disqualification win and the Chamber match slots.[51] The Shield wanted revenge, so a six-man tag match was set up between The Shield and The Wyatt Family at the Elimination Chamber event,[52] which The Wyatt Family won. On the March 3 episode of Raw, The Shield was given a rematch against The Wyatt family, but lost again when The Shield's poor teamwork led to Seth Rollins leaving the ring during the match. On the April 8 episode of Main Event, The Shield (who turned into faces) finally defeated The Wyatt Family in another six-man tag team match.

At the Royal Rumble event, The Wyatt Family cost John Cena his WWE World Heavyweight Championship match against Randy Orton. The Wyatt Family attacked Cena, Daniel Bryan, and Sheamus during an Elimination Chamber qualifying match against The Shield, thus awarding Cena's team a disqualification win and the Chamber match slots. Later at the same event, The Wyatt Family's interference caused Cena to be eliminated from the Elimination Chamber match. After Elimination Chamber, Wyatt turned his attention fully to feud with John Cena, with Wyatt wanting to prove that Cena's heroic act was a facade characteristic of "this era of lies" while also trying to turn Cena into a "monster".[53][54] Wyatt went on to accept Cena's challenge for a WrestleMania match,[55] with Cena successfully resisting the urge to become a "monster" and overcoming interference from Harper and Rowan to defeat Wyatt at WrestleMania XXX, thus marking the first Wyatt's clean loss in WWE's main roster.[56] The feud continued after WrestleMania based on the story that Wyatt was capturing Cena's fanbase, which was exemplified by Wyatt leading a children's choir to the ring on the April 28 episode of Raw, with the children later putting on sheep masks.[57] At Extreme Rules, Wyatt defeated Cena in a Steel Cage match, after repeated interference from the rest of The Wyatt Family and a demonic child.[58] Cena's feud with Wyatt continued with a Last Man Standing match being set up for Payback, which Cena won.[59]

On the June 2 episode of Raw, Harper and Rowan took on The Usos in a tag team match; Bray Wyatt did not appear during the match, but his rocking chair still sat beside the ring. Wyatt then went on to win his match against Dean Ambrose to qualify for Money in the Bank, due to a distraction by Seth Rollins. At Money in the Bank, all three members of The Wyatt Family failed to win the titles.[60][61] The Wyatt Family came up winless at Battleground as The Usos successfully defended their WWE Tag Team Championship against Harper and Rowan [62] On the June 30 episode of Raw, The Wyatt Family interrupted Chris Jericho's return and beat him down.[63][64] During Battleground, Jericho defeated Bray Wyatt in a singles match. Wyatt continued his feud with Jericho into SummerSlam.[65] On the August 1 episode of SmackDown, Jericho defeated Rowan to ban him from being at ringside for Wyatt's match at SummerSlam.[66] On the August 4 episode of Raw, Wyatt attacked Jericho in Harper's match against Jericho, causing Harper to be also banned from Wyatt's SummerSlam match.[67] At SummerSlam, Wyatt defeated Jericho in a rematch.[68] and on the following Raw, Wyatt defeted Jericho once again in a steel cage match to end their feud. On the August 25 episode of Raw, Wyatt faced John Cena. Harper and Rowan caused a disqualification, leading to a six-man tag pitting The Wyatt Family against Cena, Show and Henry, in which Cena submitted Harper to win.[69] On the September 8 episode of Raw, Wyatt defeated Jericho in a steel cage match. The Wyatt's last televised match while together as a trio aired on the September 19 episode of SmackDown, when all three Wyatt Family members defeated Big Show and Los Matadores.[70] They were then taken off television.[71]

Harper and Rowan reunion

From September 29, videos were shown of Harper and Rowan being "set free".[72][73] All three members of the Wyatt Family returned to television on their own and apart from each other. Wyatt returned at Hell in a Cell on October 26, attacking Dean Ambrose.[74] Rowan returned on the October 31 episode of SmackDown,[75] and Harper returned on the November 10 episode of Raw, aligning himself with The Authority.[76] On the November 17 episode of Raw, Rowan joined Team Cena for Survivor Series, turning babyface by going after Harper and thus disbanding the group.[77]

On the May 7, 2015 episode of SmackDown, after Harper defeated Fandango, Rowan would come out, seemingly to attack Harper, but would instead attack Fandango, turning heel. On the May 11 episode of Raw, Harper and Rowan would officially reunite, when Harper would accompany Rowan to his match against Fandango and end up double teaming him after Rowan won the 30 second bout.
