10 Best WWE Face Turns Of The 2010s

10. Erick Rowan - Raw 2014

In late 2014, a series of promos began airing proclaiming that Wyatt Family members, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan, had been "set free". Many fans were curious to see what became of the former cult members and they got half of their answer pretty quickly.

Harper aligned himself with The Authority, joining their team at Survivor Series to face John Cena and his partners. He even won the Intercontinental Championship from Dolph Ziggler with The Authority's help.

With Harper getting all this attention, many assumed that Rowan had simply been forgotten about. That was, until the 17 November episode of Raw.

With Team Authority fully assembled, Team Cena was still lacking a member. It looked like Cesaro was going to fill that void, but this turned out to be a swerve by the baddies. Just when it looked like all hope was lost, who should make his way to the ring but Big Red himself.

Rowan joined Team Cena and defied his former Wyatt brother, making him the first member of The Wyatt Family to turn babyface in WWE.

Rowan was eliminated by Harper at Survivor Series and the rest of his face run was quite disappointing, but this was a genuine shock that had a lot of people really rooting for the big beardy boy.
