With the 2023 WWE Draft now behind us, several stars from the NXT brand were called up to WWE’s main roster as part of the Draft.
Several of NXT’s top stars didn’t end up being called up to the main roster, with perhaps the most surprising being former two-time NXT Champion Bron Breakker.
Bron lost the NXT Championship to Carmelo Hayes at NXT Stand & Deliver over WrestleMania 39 weekend, before turning heel shortly after.
Hayes and Breakker had their last match at NXT Battleground, with Hayes again defeating Breakker to retain the title.
Breakker has since set his sights on World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, with Rollins set to head to NXT to defend the title against Breakker on next week’s episode of NXT, which many are speculating could lead to Bron’s call-up.
Speaking with the Cheap Heat podcast, Bron discussed his current heel role in NXT, and how he’s not disappointed about not getting the call-up in the Draft.
He said:
“No, there’s no disappointment or anything. Being a heel now is the best thing that I’ve done. I’m having so much fun. It’s more natural for me. This is just such a better version of me, you know? I’m having the time of my life right now. I’m not worried about whether I’m going up or getting drafted. That’s not something I worry about or think about. You know, when my time comes, it’ll come. That’s it.”
Bron was asked if he thought there were any parts of his presentation he believes can be improved, to which he said:
“Oh, absolutely. I mean, I think my entire overall package can be improved. I don’t think I can ever stop improving. Some aspects of the game, it’s just going to take time, take reps, take –just being a seasoned athlete. Just those reps, night after night after night on the road. That’s when some of these things come, and I’m very much looking forward to it.”
