NXT's Bron Breakker Debuts On Raw, Wins First Match On WWE's Main Roster
NXT Champion Bron Breakker debuted on Raw and kicked off his main roster career with a big win on this week's edition of WWE's flagship show.
It all went down at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland, Ohio on Monday, March 7. Breakker made his debut on the red brand alongside his NXT colleague and mentor Tommaso Ciampa during a backstage interview with Kevin Patrick. The importance of the moment was not lost on the second generation Superstar, who acknowledged that it was a dream come true.
Later on, Ciampa and Breakker joined forces to take on Dolph Ziggler and Bobby Roode, with whom they have been feuding since Dolph Ziggler gatecrashed NXT 2.0 several weeks back. The NXT Superstars defeated the main roster tag team in a little under 10 minutes, with Breakker picking up the win for his team by pinning Ziggler clean.
On the next edition of NXT 2.0, Breakker will defend his gold against Ziggler and Ciampa in a Triple Threat Match.
Breakker (real name Bronson Rechsteiner) signed with WWE in February 2021. At WrestleMania Backlash last May, Breakker portrayed one of the "zombies" in the lumberjack match between Damian Priest and The Miz. In August, he portrayed a security guard during an NXT segment featuring Samoa Joe and Karrion Kross. The segment concluded with Breakker being choked out by Joe.
Back in January, Breakker defeated Tommaso Ciampa in the main event of New Year's Evil 2022 to become the NXT Champion, ending Ciampa's 113-day-long reign in the process
