Booking Bron Breakker this strongly is logical.

He fought off a Seth Rollins steel chair attack from behind (thanks partly to his stablemates), then left Seth laying after a few spears. The accidental blood on Breakker only made him look more badass. Also, having Rollins fight from underneath against such a physical marvel is the right way to go, and fans seem right into the idea of them having a few grudge matches. It looks like the first of those is incoming at Backlash.

All going well, Bron vs. Seth will be a straight up singles affair on the next PLE. Then, after that ends in dramatic fashion (either as a double countout/disqualification or with a screwy win for Rollins due to miscommunication within the ranks of The Vision), then we can power towards something else. Steel cage? Hell In A Cell? Nothing is off the table for these former stablemates.

Breakker's intensity is practically unmatched when he gets going. The way he wiped blood from his face after destroying Seth on Monday made him look every inch the killer. It's a simple tale: Rollins is a first ballot Hall Of Famer in the making, but he's physically out-gunned by someone he handpicked to be one of his attack dogs last year.

Injuries have wreaked havoc on The Vision's story, but WWE can still win out of this by sticking Bron and Seth in the ring multiple times for 20-25 minutes and letting them cut loose. The blow off gimmick bout (assuming there is one and this rivalry doesn't run until 2046) should be outstanding.
