Despite Bray Wyatt & Braun Strowman Out of Action, Major Tease Dropped, Hinting at a Potential Wyatt Family Reunion

After making his return to WWE, Bray Wyatt was unceremoniously written off from WWE programming earlier this year. His absence led the fans to wonder about his whereabouts and return. But now, his former stablemate, Eric Rowan has gotten the fans spitballing about his potential comeback to WWE. Rowan was one of the members of the Wyatt Family after they made their debut. 

Eric Rowan was widely recognized for donning the sheep mask during his entrances alongside the late Luke Harper and Bray Wyatt. Together, the Wyatt Family became the WWE’s new faces of fear, victimizing anybody who crossed paths with them. 

Did Eric Rowan just tease his WWE return?

Eric Rowan’s nine-year stint with WWE ended in 2020 when he was released due to the Covid 19 budget cuts. Naturally, Eric Rowan was taken aback by his release. After leaving the Stamford-based promotion Rowan made several appearances in independent wrestling under the ring name, Eric RedBeard. 

The 41-year-old even made his appearance in AEW in 2020 during the tribute show of his former partner, Brodie Lee(Luke Harper). And now, his cryptic post on Twitter portends his potential return to WWE. Taking to Twitter, Rowan shared a picture of him holding the dreaded sheep mask. Although Rowan’s return is not certain, we still cannot rule out the possibility of it due to his recent post. 

Since Bray Wyatt has been missing in action since the lead-up to WrestleMania 39, it could be the opportune time for him to make his return alongside Eric Rowan. Even though the Wyatt Family will never be complete without Luke Harper, adding Braun Strowman to the group could reinvigorate the stable once again.

Eric Rowan/RedBeard comments on his WWE release

The layoff tsunami in WWE during the global pandemic came as a shock to many talents. And Eric Rowan was one of them. Back then, Vince McMahon was still in power and had full control of the creative. However, after Triple H took the reins of the creative, a lot of released superstars were brought back including Braun Strowman. 

While speaking on Heated Shenanigans podcast, Eric Rowan relayed that he was upset about his WWE release in 2020. According to him, his character at the time was growing and starting to develop. He said, “I was upset because I was just coming off a run where I was able to open my mouth, speak, actually have some character. They kind of just swept it all underneath my feet … So, in my head that not working was a failure to me. In my head that was a failure.”
