Bron Breakker throws out a big challenge as John Cena gears up for his retirement tour, a pivotal point of WWE programming in 2025.
Bron Breakker-- is the new WWE Intercontinental Champion. He captured that championship from Sami Zayn at WWE SummerSlam 2024. Breakker is running through the Monday Night Raw roster, and he has his sights set on the wrestling legends, including a major challenge to John Cena.
During an interview with MuscleManMalcolm that was recorded before SummerSlam, Breakker clarified that if he won the Intercontinental Championship, he wanted to defend it against John Cena because it's the one title that John Cena has never won in WWE.
"John Cena, he's never won the Intercontinental Championship before. So I say, come take it from me. Come take the championship from me. Grow some balls and come take the championship from me. Let's go. Let's do it."
Bron Breakker was issuing challenges all throughout WWE SummerSlam weekend, even offering The Undertaker one more match. Learn more here.
