10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (March 16)

7. Erick Rowan Thought A Jobber Screaming Was Luke Harper

If there's one thing James Ellsworth proved against Braun Strowman in 2016, it's that a memorable performance in the jobber role can lead to great things. Maybe that's what was going through Joe Monroe's mind on the 12 December 2017 SmackDown when he screamed out loud as The Bludgeon Brothers hit him with a Powerbomb.

On the Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast, Luke Harper told just how confused Erick Rowan was when the heels retreated backstage after their segment.

Hilariously, Rowan thought it was Harper who had led out the yelp and wanted to quiz his partner on why he'd done it. At first, Luke was confused too, because he didn't have a clue what Rowan was talking about. It wasn't until they watched the match back together that both realised Monroe had let loose the bloodcurdling sound.

How they managed to keep a straight face is anyone's guess. The announcers couldn't.
