WWE veteran says Bron Breakker is just a remake of Goldberg: "Snorting and spitting all the way out there" (Exclusive)

Bron Breakker is seemingly being built up as WWE's next big thing. Following his quick victory on SmackDown, Dutch Mantell likened Breakker to Goldberg and believed the young star needed something more to make him stand out.

After having a highly acclaimed run in NXT, Bron Breakker has been officially called up to the main roster. The talented wrestler was drafted to RAW following his match on SmackDown this week.

Bron Breakker has been compared to Goldberg since he stepped inside a wrestling ring, with the former WCW champion also acknowledging the similarities.

Dutch Mantell also brought up the likeness on the latest Smack Talk episode, noting that Breakker and Goldberg's facial expressions are also identical.

"Well, he is just a remake of Goldberg. That's all it is. He even does the facial expressions that Goldberg does. He is snorting and spitting all the way out there. I think they could have given him just a little bit [something], and I understand to make him a killer, I understand that!" he said. [54:00 - 55:00]

The 26-year-old star competed on SmackDown this week and picked up a blink-and-you-miss win over Cedric Alexander.

Booking superstars in squash matches is a tried-and-tested way of getting them over. However, Dutch Mantell expected WWE to eventually allow Breakker to showcase more of his skill set and evolve as a character.

"If they get in a position where people get used to see him these two-minute massacres, if he is going to go ten. People are going to go, 'Woah, he went down hell!' He can still win the match after ten. I think he is still a work in progress, and they will adjust him as they go along. I'm interested in him," he added. [55:01 - 56:00]

Bron Breakker will kick off a highly-anticipated run on the main roster as a WWE RAW Superstar. It's evident that the company considers him to be a big deal and would be hoping he surpasses Goldberg's accolades in his career.
