8. Luke Harper Talks About Vince McMahon Yelling At Him
During a recent edition of Talk Is Jericho podcast, Wyatt Family member Luke Harper talked about winning the Intercontinental Championship and Vince McMahon yelling at him on that night. Below is what he said:
“I won the Intercontinental title, I beat Ziggler for it. Yeah, I thought it was great. I thought everything was good. I came to the back and Vince yelled at me because I didn’t speak in a southern accent, so it kind of put a damper on things for a little bit. I had to say, ‘I’m a team player’ in the prematch promo, but I had to say it southern because that was his vision of me and it might still be. I hope not.
Yes, and our vision of it is our people come from everywhere. Bray Wyatt’s message is nationwide. He’s from the bayou, but us, his followers, aren’t necessarily. We kind of pick and choose where he got us.”
Harper also talked about a possible female member addition to the Wyatt Family:
“New blood. I’ve always said that, I thought with a cult like that, we should always have kind of new members joining and grow bigger. I think adding a woman gives us more diverse things and more ways to go instead of just saying, ‘hey, we’re going to beat you up.’”
