Broooooooooon! Oh wait, that's the wrong spelling (and the wrong wrestler). It says everything about Bron Breakker that he's half the size of Braun Strowman but still carries the same sort of aura Strowman did when he burst onto the scene. People love this particular Steiner, and it's only a matter of time before he's tearing it up in main event permanently.

Some even have Bron down as a candidate to win the men's Rumble in 2026. His quest to dethrone CM Punk and become World Heavyweight Champion on the 5 January Raw wasn't successful in the end, but that ain't a wrap on Breakker's headline aspirations - there's plenty more to come from him on that front.

Like Sami Zayn, Gunther and more, Bron could well be pencilled in with a question mark next to his name. Triple H adores what he brings to the party, so Breakker will be pushed consistently throughout the year.
