The Wyatt Family (2012–2014)

 
Wyatt family

At the very end of 2012, Eric joined the group of Bray Wyatt "The Wyatt Family", in which he teamed up with Luke Harper . In January, they started the tournament for the first NXT team championship, where they reached the final, in which they lost to Adrian Neville and Oliver Gray . However, a few months later, Rowan and Harper took revenge on the British , taking away their team championship at the NXT show in early May.

The end of May brought the Family a debut on RAW . On May 27, their debut gloomy promo was shown on the air of the red brand show.

For 6 weeks, video promos were shown on WWE broadcasts in which Eric began to appear in a sheep mask. The latest videos were a record of the camera crew’s visit to their home somewhere in the American outback.

In the meantime, the NXT team managed to win several victories over the grouping of faces that included Cory Graves, Adrian Neville, Cassius Ono and even William Regal , but then still lost their titles to the Neville and Graves team on the show shown on June 20. A few weeks after this, the official “farewell” of the family to the training ground took place, marked by Aiden English and Mickey Keegan squash and Bray Wyatt's speech.

The Family debuted on RAW on July 8, 2013, when the Wyatt attacked Kane . Within a few weeks, they made several more attacks on the mid and low card wrestlers, which invariably culminated in Wyatt's prowls facing Kane. The result of this short feud was a match at SummerSlam , where Bray defeated the opponent in the Ring of Fire gimmick match, after which Rowan and Semeyka took him with them behind the scenes, and Kane disappeared from WWE stories for a long time. The family, meanwhile, won a number of victories over teams such as Tons of Funk and Prime Time Players, alternating with attacks on Kofi Kingston , who was defeated by Wyatt on the Battlegrounds PPV, and Misa . On Smackdown !, aired on October 11, the team’s small winning streak was interrupted by a loss to Cody Rhodes and Goldast . After Wyatt began a feud with Daniel Bryan and SM Punk , which led to the match at the PPV Survivor Series (2013) , in which Luke Harper and Eric Rowan lost to Punk and Brian. On December 2nd RAW, Rowan lost the match to Daniel Brian. On SmackDown on December 13, he lost to Daniel Brian, but now in DC. At TLC (2013), the Wyatt family as a whole defeated Daniel Bryan in a handicap match. On SmackDown on December 20, Eric Rowan and Luke Harper defeated the Rhodes Brothers . On RAW on December 30, he again lost the match to Daniel Brian.

Solo Performances (2014–2015)

Eric Rowan made a face-turn by joining John Cena 's team against Survives Series Leadership. Sina's team almost lost, until Sting stepped in, who conducted a Reverse DDT on Triple Eyche and helped to win the match. On January 5, a team from Ryback , Dolph Ziggler, and Eric Rowan defeated the boss team again. In Royal Battle 2015 came out at number 6, but was almost immediately knocked out by Curtis Axel . On January 22, at Smack Dowan, Bray White wanted to reunite the White Family. A week later, on January 31, he defeated Curtis Axel at the Main Event. At Fastlane he joined the team with Dolph Ziggler and Ryback against Seth Rollins , the Big Show and Kane in a team battle, but lost.

Participated in the Andre Gigant Memorial Battle in WrestleMania, but was thrown out.

Reunion with Luke Harper (2015 - 2016)

In May, he reunited with Luke Harper on the team when he attacked Fandango after his match with Harper, making a hill turn.

The Bludgeon Brothers (2017 - 2018)

In 2017, Harper, along with his longtime teammate and rival Eric Rowan, made his debut in the new gimmick - The Bludgeon Brothers. At first defeating only local wrestlers, Harper and Rowan gradually climbed to the top of the blue brand team division. At Fastlane 2018, Harper and Rowan intervened in the title fight between The New Day and the current team champions of The Usos, beating all five of the contestants, which obviously meant that The Bludgeon Brothers had seriously entered the race for the belts. At Wrestlemania 34, Harper and Roane easily dealt with New Day and The Usos in a three-way team match, taking away the championship belts from the latter.

Daniel Bryan's support and performance as a full-fledged team (2019 - present)

On January 27, 2019, at the Battle Royale, Rowan returned after an injury and attacked AJ Styles , which helped Daniel Brian defeat the first and defend the WWE championship.

On May 7, 2019, at SmackDown, he fought in a team with Daniel Bryan against the Wuso Brothers for the vacant SmackDown team titles, which the Hardy Brothers lost a week earlier, due to an injury to Jeff, Brian and Rowan, defeated Wuso and became SmackDown team champions, for Rowan this is the second similar success in his career, the first time he won team gold a year earlier at WrestleMania 34 in a team with Harper, then they defeated the Uso Brothers and New Day.
