Erick Rowan had a very unique dynamic with Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper (Brodie Lee) that can never be reproduced.
WWE Superstar Erick Rowan recently spoke with Card Player. When asked if he could share any memories from his time together with Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper, Rowan explained the group’s dynamic and what those two people meant to him.
I was the driver and John (Luke) was the navigator, and I like to think of Windham as the peacemaker,” Erick Rowan said. “So when we would drive together early on, we were having to share rooms sometimes, and I was a snorer. There was a lot of discontent for each other on some of those loops, and Windham would be the peacemaker of it all and make sure that we got along, which was a lot of fun.
“But as far as learning stuff, I feel like we all kind of learned a little bit from each other. You had in Windham someone who was such a master storyteller with the way he would tell stories and the way he would get into his promos, you’d really feel what he was saying. So I like to think that, especially now moving forward and kind of getting more into acting and that realm of things, it’s really opened up my emotional connectability to anything I say and makes me feel the words that I’m saying to whoever.
Erick Rowan is grateful for his time with Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper
“I’m eternally grateful for that stuff, and you don’t think about it at the time, but these are things that you pick up. And then with John, I would watch the way he would work seamlessly in the ring and move from how he would move from certain things he would do in the ring to other things he would do in the ring. Kind of like the fluidity of things, and it really helped me try to pick up how to do that with my own style, where I can work like me, but be able to have those transitions that he would have. It’s kind of hard to not get better around guys like that. Very hard.”
