Erick Rowan feels WWE ‘jumped the gun’ with The Fiend
Rowan revealed that while he loves The Fiend, WWE jumped the gun with the gimmick, which hurt the character. Erick Rowan explained that WWE booking The Fiend to get ‘killed’ by Goldberg and expecting him to bounce right back wasn’t the smartest of decisions.
Erick Rowan hoped that The Fiend doesn’t appear too often in the future to prevent a case of oversaturation. He also felt that Finn Balor’s Demon King character suffered a similar fate.
However, Rowan praised Bray Wyatt for doing a phenomenal job and was confident that his former stablemate would find a way to make it all work.
Rowan also said that the Wyatt Family was a special group that could not have been portrayed by other guys.
Erick Rowan, who now goes by the name Erick Redbeard, recently caught up with Sportskeeda’s Stephanie Chase for an hour-long interview which you can view below:
Rowan is enjoying a well-deserved hiatus from professional wrestling, but he is expected to resume his in-ring career sooner rather than later. Could Rowan join his former tag team partner Brodie Lee fka Luke Harper in AEW? Would you like to see that happen?
