Jon  Huber  :(born  December  16,  1979)  is  an  American  professional  wrestler.  He  is  signed  to  WWE,  where  he  performs  under  the  ring  name  Luke  Harper.  He  was  previously  known  for  his  work  on  the  U.S.  independent  circuit  under  his  former  ring  name  Brodie  Lee  in  promotions  such  as  Chikara,  Jersey  All  Pro  Wrestling,  and  Ring  of  Honor.  He  also  wrestled  in  Japan  for  Dragon  Gate.In  WWE,  he  is  a  former  NXT  Tag  Team  Champion  with  former  Wyatt  Family  stablemate  Erick  Rowan,  and  a  one-time  WWE  Intercontinental  Champion.

Early  career  :After  being  trained  by  Kirby  Marcos  and  Rik  Matrix  in  Rochester,  New  York,  and  Tony  Mamaluke  in  Schenectady,  New  York,  Huber  made  his  professional  wrestling  debut  for  Roc  City  Wrestling  in  late  2002,  working  under  a  mask  as  Huberboy  #2.[citation  needed]  He  would  eventually  unmask  while  still  using  the  Huberboy  #2  name.  During  2003,  Huber  began  working  as  Brodie  Lee  for  Rochester  Pro  Wrestling  (RPW).  He  came  up  with  the  name  Brodie  Lee  from  the  movie  Mallrats  by  combining  the  names  of  actor  Jason  Lee  and  his  character  Brodie  Bruce.

Huber  cites  Rick  Rude,  Jake  Roberts  and  Big  Show  as  his  influences.  Throughout  his  time  in  RPW,  which  was  later  renamed  to  NWA  Upstate  and  then  again  to  NWA  New  York,  Lee  would  go  on  to  win  multiple  championships  including  the  Heavyweight  Championship  on  three  separate  occasions,  the  Tag  Team  Championship  once  and  the  Television  Championship  once,  which  he  would  also  proceed  to  unify  with  the  Kayfabe  Dojo  Championship.  Huber  has  described  his  original  "The  Right  Stuff"  gimmick  as  him  "just  having  fun"  and  "being  a  cruiserweight".
