Luke Harper's run in WWE established his place as a fan-favorite
Luke Harper was initially known as a tag team player when he made his way over to WWE. Harper mostly teamed up with Erick Rowan in a devastating tag team and the two were also a part of The Wyatt Family.
However, with the majority of the WWE Universe hoping to see Harper compete as a singles Superstar, Vince McMahon and his team eventually gave the fans what they asked for.
The former Wyatt Family star won the WWE Intercontinental Championship during his singles run and shared the ring with some of the absolute best in the company.
In his final run for WWE, Luke Harper was reunited with Erick Rowan before he left for AEW and was revealed as The Exalted One of The Dark Order.
