Smackdown Live’s Luke Harper spoke with Mike Thiel of the Courier-Journal about a number of things including WWE’s first TV tapings in Louisville, KY in seven years. Harper spoke with Thiel about how he found himself outside of the Wyatt family, his gimmick and WWE TV’s return to Louisville.

Here are the highlights from the interview:

On WWE TV Returning To Louisville:

“I think it’s the anticipation for the people, because TV is nothing like a house show experience. They are both very cool in their own right, but TV, with all the bells and whistles, it’s something you can’t replicate. For not having seen that in seven years, I think it’s going to be very cool for the crowd to come out and be part of that.”

Harper On Finding His Identity Outside Of The Wyatt Family:

“That’s the fun and stressful and terrifying part about this time of my career, who knows where it goes? It could go way up or way down and it’s kind of up to me to decide where it goes. I’m just trying to make myself the best professional wrestler that I can and I know that sounds cliche, but that’s kind of the point, is to do the best you can and it’s on them to use that.”

Harper On His Gimmick:

“I don’t know if there was any real inspiration. I got an email from a promoter, Mike Quackenbush and Mitch Ryder, who suggested it. I tried it out and then it just became me turned up and wacky and it just felt right. I’ve been told a thousand times, you’re really whacked out there, but to me, it doesn’t seem that way. It feels very normal. So when someone tells me it’s crazy, I don’t know what to say. My wife, I don’t think she even bats an eye at it anymore.”
