Every Wrestling Rookie Of The Year: Where Are They Now?
1. 2022: Bron Breakker
In which the fingers curled on the monkey's paw of those "He's the next Goldberg!" comparisons.
Breakker was a ribcage squelcher of a dumb jock wrestler, boasting the best spear since Goldberg and Rhyno, but after an incredible start, he was trapped in supernatural hell with Joe Gacy (and then a fishing boat with Apollo Crews).
He can work a good if rarely blow-away great TV match, but the mandatory back-and-forth of the WWE style doesn't flatter him. He can do it, but he can't develop a sh*t-kicker aura when his match structure resembles everybody else's.
Bron in the G1 is an amazing prospect, but it's not happening. He's better as a heel at time of writing, but even then, he's selling too much.
