Bron Breakker continues to be one of the top superstars on NXT 2.0 and while he failed to capture the NXT Championship in October, he did defeat a champion on Tuesday.
Breakker picked up a singles victory over NXT Cruiserweight Champion Roderick Strong on Tuesday in a non-title bout.
Speaking on WWE El Brunch, Breakker commented on the bout with Strong.
"Roderick Strong, he's a really tough guy and a tough competitor. I have to give credit where it's due, he's a very elite superstar. He's very elite. He brings the best out of his opponents. That's all I can really say about him is that he's elite. He's a top performer. All the respect to Roddy. It was an old school slugfest. I was thankful for the opportunity," he said.
Later in the interview, Breakker was asked about potentially working on the main roster. He named the top guys such as Roman Reigns, Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins, and others.
When asked about Brock Lesnar, he replied, "I met him (in) like 2017. I went backstage to Raw when I was in college. I met him there. As a performer, I haven't ran into him. I'd love to work with Brock. He's an animal. Like Roddy, he would elevate me, force me to elevate and bring my game up. It would be a war."
As of now, Breakker has his eyes set on Tommaso Ciampa and the NXT Championship.
