Luke Harper has had a bit of a rocky relationship with WWE this year and recent events show the drama continuing.

 

About six months ago, Harper went public with his request to be released from his WWE deal. At the time, he wrote on Twitter:

 

“As of this evening, I have requested a release from WWE,” Harper wrote. “The past 6 years have been a simply, amazing journey around the world and back with lifelong friends and family. I am proud of it all and proud to say I shared the ring with my co workers.

 

“This decision, as difficult as it was, feels right for myself and WWE. My goal in the future is to continue to grow as a performer and person and continue to make my family proud,” the statement continued. “Thank you. From the top to the bottom of WWE. Thank you to the fans for your undying support. Thank you everyone.”

 

WWE wasn’t really using him at the time after he had recovered from an injury following his 2018 stint as one half of the Bludgeon Brothers, so understandably, Harper felt like his talents could be better used elsewhere.

 

Harper was recently brought back to WWE television to team with Erick Rowan again. The pair had a fantastic tag team match against Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns this past Sunday night at WWE Hell in a Cell.
