Luke Harper, American wrestler
Jonathan Huber (December 16, 1979 – December 26, 2020) was an American professional wrestler. He is best known for his tenure in WWE, where he performed under the ring name Luke Harper (later simply Harper) from 2012 to 2019, and All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where he performed under the ring name Mr. Brodie Lee in 2020.
From 2003 to 2012, Huber worked under the Brodie Lee name on the U.S. independent circuit for promotions such as Chikara, Ring of Honor (ROH), Dragon Gate USA (DGUSA), and Squared Circle Wrestling (2CW), as well as Dragon Gate in Japan. Upon signing with WWE in 2012, he assumed the Luke Harper name and was sent to WWE's developmental territory in Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) before debuting in NXT as a member of The Wyatt Family. For most of his WWE career, he was closely associated with Wyatt Family members Bray Wyatt and Erick Rowan. The Wyatt Family won the NXT Tag Team Championship and the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship. The team of Harper and Rowan, also known as The Bludgeon Brothers in one of their later tag team runs, went on to hold the SmackDown Tag Team Championship once more. During a brief run as a singles competitor, Harper became a one-time WWE Intercontinental Champion. He departed WWE in December 2019 and subsequently made his AEW debut in March 2020 as Mr. Brodie Lee, revealing himself to be "The Exalted One" (the previously anonymous leader of The Dark Order) and winning the AEW TNT Championship in August of that year.
Having been hospitalized for an undisclosed lung issue in late October 2020, Huber died two months later on December 26 at the age of 41. The official cause of death was later revealed to be the rare condition idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
