1) Vince McMahon Doesn’t “Get” Luke Harper
In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer provided some interesting information on Luke Harper.
Meltzer shared some backstage notes on why Vince McMahon hasn’t used Harper on TV since he returned from injury at Wrestlemania 35.
Here is an excerpt from Meltzer on the situation:
“One person close to the situation told us that he needs to get out because they made a call that they weren’t going to use him after Vince saw him in his return. Vince said that he didn’t “get him” and complained that he couldn’t even do a Southern accent (that was from them wanting him to do a Southern accent four years ago). He was regularly pitching ideas when he was out with an injury and they turned down every pitch.”
So Vince doesn’t want to grant him his release, nor does he want to use him on TV. Talk about a tough situation.
