Shawn Michaels Has High Praise For Bron Breakker

WWE’s Vice President of Talent Development Shawn Michaels had some high praise for NXT 2.0 breakout star Bron Breakker.

Breakker had his biggest match to date last night in the main event of Halloween Havoc, where he was quite surprisingly unsuccessful in challenging Tommaso Ciampa for the NXT Championship.

Prior to the match, Shawn Michaels spoke with Sports Illustrated about Breakker and his potential, saying:

“Tommaso is the epitome of the guy that’s done everything, and once you see Bron, you very quickly realize that he’s going to be the guy that’s done everything. The genes run deep in that family, and he’s got all of them. He is one of those individuals who has it. He’s an unbelievably wonderful, passionate, hardworking young man, and he is everything that is great about this line of work.

“He’s a throwback. He took the same path that Wahoo McDaniel, Ernie Ladd, John Bradshaw, Ted DiBiase and Big E took. They went far in their collegiate career, but they always had this desire to be a WWE Superstar. That’s Bron, and he’s taking this place by storm. And it’s even better when you know there is a great young man behind that person.”

Despite his loss last night, reports suggest WWE still intends on positioning Breakker as the face of the new NXT.

It’s also become apparent recently that Michaels is a big backer of NXT North American Champion Carmelo Hayes.
