Luke Harper leaves Wyatt Family, joins Kardashian family

Immagine
After being “set free” by Bray Wyatt on a recent episode of World Wrestling Entertainment programming, hairy hillbilly Luke Harper has left the Wyatt family and, to the surprise of many, joined the Kardashian family.

For nearly two years, Harper has been the stoic brute of the Wyatt Family, rarely speaking and even-more-rarely doing laundry, but it seems he is ready to assert himself in a different context: among a family of wealthy, attention-whoring pseudo-celebrities.

On a recent episode of WWE Raw, Harper looked into the camera and uttered “You’re doomed,” presumably referring to how the Kardashians will be remembered in pop-culture history.

It is a significant change for Harper, who will have to forsake his unwavering devotion to a charismatic cult leader (Wyatt) in favor of an unwavering devotion to a charisma-bereft pack of spoiled, megalomaniacal dimwits.

Harper is scheduled to appear on the next episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which is one of the only programs on television that makes WWE Monday Night Raw look like highbrow cultural entertainment by comparison.

On the episode, Harper will stroke his scraggly beard and cock his head in confusion while Kanye and Kim get lavish pedicures, and Bruce wanders around the house looking like a half-melted mannequin.

TV critics who have seen the episode describe Harper as “the normal, likeable one.”

WWE loses ratings war to Colt Cabana’s podcast
December 4, 2014

Colt Cabana (left) is now the most powerful man in professional wrestling, usurping both Vince McMahon and Jamie Noble.
For the first time since the heyday of World Championship Wrestling (WCW), sports-entertainment juggernaut World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has fallen to second-place in a ratings “war,” this time lagging behind Colt Cabana’s “Art of Wrestling” podcast.

WWE’s flagship weekly program, Monday Night Raw, has lost a substantial audience to Cabana’s podcast (or “pahdcast,” in Cabanese) for the second consecutive week, thanks in large part to the appearance of elusive former WWE star CM Punk.

According to Nielsen ratings statistics and iTunes charts, the Art of Wrestling has now reached a larger audience than WrestleMania, the Super Bowl, and Impact Wrestling combined (though the latter figure is negligible).

Cabana’s podcast, recorded weekly in a studio (aaaaaaapartment) in Chicago, Illinois, has sparked many imitators — roughly 97 percent of former wrestling personalities now host podcasts — but no duplicators.

Whereas Monday Night Raw has grown bloated and stale, fans are drawn to Cabana’s breezy conversational style, his penchant for using words that don’t actually exist, his staccato pronunciation of the word “important,” and his ever-more-obscure Song of the Week.

On the most recent episode of the pahdcast, which attracted an audience of 325 million listeners, CM Punk confirmed that he will return to WWE “right after Big John Studd returns.”
