Scott Steiner: Bron Breakker Would Watch Me On Nitro And Then Cut My Promos On Me

Scott Steiner weighs in on Bron Breakker's future.

Bron Breakker quickly became the face of NXT 2.0 when the brand debuted in September 2021 and has remained one of the top stars on the brand as the brand has shifted back to more of the Black & Gold style.

Speaking to John Poz on Two Man Power Trip, Breakker's uncle Scott Steiner was asked about Bron's progress.

"He's picked it up quicker than I thought he would. There are so many intricate details you have to pay attention to. He was always a fan. He'd watch me on Nitro and then ride his bicycle over and then cut the same promo on me, to me. [Laughs]. 'Come up with your own shit.' I believe that's probably good with interviews today, he's been doing it for so long. Then, he copies all my shit, so that helps [laughs]. He's very athletic. He was in Baltimore Ravens camp in the COVID year, which was tough because they had to learn by video and not on the field. He made it to the second to last cut. He did good. Then he got called a year after he started wrestling, but he was already making good progress in wrestling so he stayed at the Performance Center," he said.

Asked if he thinks Breakker should be on the main roster, Steiner replied, "Do I think he's ready? Yeah, but there's no point in going up there if there are not any plans because there are so many people up there now with CM Punk coming back, Cody Rhodes, The Rock just came back for that Raw and it sounds like they might be doing WrestleMania with Rock and Roman Reigns. There are so many top-notch talents, it's hard for them to find a spot for everybody. It's better to stay down there (in NXT) instead of going up there (to the main roster) and getting lost in the shuffle. It's better to go up when they have concrete plans for you."

Breakker is currently teaming with Baron Corbin in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.

Elsewhere during the interview, Steiner discussed being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. You can find his full comments by clicking here.
