"Better than both of us" - One of the only WWE stars to pin Gunther draws significant remarks from legendary 17-time tag team champions
WWE has been cultivating superstars of tomorrow across brands and many of them have already etched their name in the company's history books. Recently, the legendary duo of Scott and Rick Steiner made significant remarks about one of the upcomings stars of WWE, Bron Breakker.
Breakker has spent less than five years in the industry and dominated the developmental brand before his arrival on WWE's main roster. The second-generation star and son of Rick Steiner overcame every in-ring obstacle before establishing himself as a bonafide future main eventer in the promotion.
The legendary duo of Rick and Scott Steiner, known as the Steiner Brothers, spoke highly of Bron Breakker in their upcoming biography at A&E. The 17-time tag team champions, including two WWE Tag Team Championships, made a significant remark and stated Breakker has the potential to surpass them both.
"It just seems like a natural thing for him to do it. He's doing well with it," Rick said.
Scott Steiner, Breakker's uncle, also added:
"He has the potential to be better than both of us," Scott stated.

Bron Breakker is one of the very few people on the roster to have scored a pinfall victory over Gunther. The win transpired on the developmental brand when The Ring General had his last match at NXT in April 2022.
Bron Breakker reveals why he decided to go with a new name in WWE
Second-generation superstars in the Stamford-based promotion often use the legacy name to stand out from the roster. However, there is no guarantee of it as there were stars who have failed to become worthy successors in the WWE regardless of their family's contributions.
Bron Breakker went on a different path when the management asked him for an in-ring name. During an appearance on Table for 3, the former two-time NXT Champion was joined by his father and uncle. He addressed why he adopted Bron Breakker as his in-ring name instead of Bron Steiner.
“I kind of came up with it from football and just playing football, I tried to hurt people or break people in half when I was blocking. That’s kind of how I came up with the name and I don’t feel like we need to use the [Steiner] name for me to be successful," Breakker said.
The second-generation star is currently on Monday Night RAW set to face Sami Zayn in Canada for the Intercontinental Championship at Money in the Bank 2024.
