10 WWE Stars Who Have Suffered The Most Since WrestleMania 30
4. & 3. Luke Harper And Erik Rowan
It really wasnt that long ago when The Wyatt Family were a really over act. WWE never gave them big wins, though. Bray came up short against John Cena, and Luke Harper and Erick Rowan failed to take the tag team titles from The Usos on multiple occasions. As things stand now, it seems like a pretty bad call. While Harper has a match on this years show, and not at Mania 30, its pretty clear that his character has fallen in the eyes of fans. After going solo, he joined up with The Authority at Survivor Series, and won the Intercontinental Title. It seemed like a promising move, but then he quickly dropped the belt the next month. These days he never wins in singles matches, yet the announcers want us to believe hes still a threat. Rowan was also given a decent singles push, which now seems to have ended for good. He was part of the main event at Survivor Series, and received a fairly big pay-per-view match against The Big Show, but now jobs on a regular basis. Maybe WWE will get serious about protecting one or both of them soon, or maybe theyll even be paired back together. But whatever the company is doing now with them clearly isnt working, and is a waste of both of their talents.
As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
