The whole Wyatt Family situation has been a bit confusing, hasn't it? If WWE wanted fans to make comparisons between Wyatt and The Undertaker's mystique, they've been going the right way about it. Unfortunately, writers have decided to confuse the relationship between Bray and his followers much like they did years ago with 'Taker and Kane.

Erick Rowan appears to sporadically become a Wyatt disciple whenever creative deem it necessary. Then, without much rhyme or reason he disappears completely, only for the cycle to repeat every now and then. It's baffling, and it just leads to fans caring little about scuffles within the Wyatt ranks.

That was the case at Backlash when parting member Luke Harper wrestled Rowan in a match that felt like a concession-stand opportunity for fans. Again, the action wasn't bad, but the feud had little pizzaz and was blatantly going nowhere.

Apathy was rife towards the match, and Rowan has rarely been seen since.
