While some may be concerned about this potentially hurting Bron Breakker, WWE legend Lex Luger doesn't think that's the case at all and believes that this was a win-win scenario. The incredibly popular Uso gets to hold a championship, while Breakker remains set up to be a major player for WWE for the next several years.

Lex Luger about the switch on the most recent episode of his Lex Expressed podcast.

"Yeah, he [Bron] won't miss a beat," said Lex. "I thought was great for Jey Uso because, I mean, that thing he does, the 'YEET,' he is so over. He's having such a great run, I am so happy for him to accomplish that. Also, even though he's relatively new in the business, that's not going to hurt Bron at all. He's so talented. He's going to be a staple in the WWE for the next, who knows, 15-20, years, he's going to be a huge star, a multi-time world champion. I see nothing but the sky's the limit for Bron. So I think that was one of those situations where it was a win-win. I think Bron's going to go on to even bigger, better things, obviously, for a long time, and it was great to see Jey get the title there. I thought that was a good move. I don't think it's gonna hurt Bron at all."
