5 biggest WWE backstage secrets that Luke Harper revealed

#1 He has asked for his release

Although this final point is stating the obvious, backstage secrets in WWE do not get much bigger than revealing to the entire world that you have requested your release.

Between Monday’s Raw and Tuesday’s SmackDown Live, Luke Harper took the unusual approach of publicly announcing that he wants to leave WWE. This has only been done by one other person, Tye Dillinger, in recent months and he was granted his release a few days later.

As for the rest of the Superstars who have reportedly asked for their release before their contract is up (The Revival, Mike & Maria Kanellis, Sasha Banks etc), they did not make their request public and none of them, as of the time of writing, have left the company.

Fans are now left questioning whether Harper publicly stating that he wants to leave will help him – after all, WWE will look bad if they keep someone against their wishes – or whether he will be made to wait until his contract expires.
