Former WWE Tag Team and Intercontinental Champion Luke Harper has been released from WWE.

The announcement was made on Sunday via WWE.com, where the company wished him well in his future endeavors.

Luke Harper went public with the fact that he was requesting his release from the company back in April. He briefly returned to TV, however, during Erick Rowan's feud with Roman Reigns over the summer ... then stopped being used again.

As we previously reported, WWE also announced the release of Sin Cara earlier this afternoon.

This marks the first member of The Wyatt Family to leave WWE.
