Bron Breakker drops major hint for big surprise at WrestleMania weekend (Exclusive)
Former NXT Champion Bron Breakker made his RAW debut last week, teaming up with Tommaso Ciampa against The Dirty Dawgs in a winning effort.
For the first time, NXT Stand & Deliver will not be held as a Takeover event, but the show is still scheduled to take place at WrestleMania weekend. The NXT 2.0 event will precede Night 1 of WrestleMania 38 this year.
The NXT star hinted at his plans for WrestleMania weekend during his exclusive interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling. Breakker admitted that he is excited to go out there and perform for everyone. It is clear that the brand has a big match scheduled for its former champion. Speaking about the event, Breakker said:
"I just can't wait to get out in front of all the fans, just see all these great people from all over the place. We have been in Orlando for a while and Orlando has been fantastic but we just can't wait to get out and perform for everyone." (From 10:31 to 11:02)
You can watch the full interview below:
Breakker lost his title in a triple-threat match last week when he faced Dolph Ziggler and Tommaso Ciampa. Since Breakker was not pinned in the match, he has a legitimate reason to demand a title rematch.
Backstage reports have suggested that Ziggler's title could be short as it was effectively booked to ensure that Bron Breakker has a big rematch on a bigger stage. Other sources claim that this could lead to Breakker's arrival on the main roster following the Show of Shows.
For now, NXT 2.0 has confirmed only one match for Stand & Deliver, which will witness Carmelo Hayes put his NXT North American Championship on the line against four other stars in a five-way ladder match.
