Hulk Hogan is impressed with Bron Breakker, who has quickly risen through the ranks in WWE.
He was introduced as a member of the NXT 2.0 group and went on to become the NXT Champion, a position he held for a long time. He also competed as a Tag Team Champion. He was promoted to the main roster earlier this year.
While speaking with SportsKeeda, Hogan discussed Breakker’s potential for WWE.
Hogan said, “He’s something else. He’s wise beyond his years. To be that intense and to know that the red light is on and be able to stay in that zone is very impressive. If they do the right thing with him, that could be the next Stone Cold [Steve Austin], Rock, or Hulk Hogan. He could be the guy.”
Hogan was then asked if he saw any similarities to Bill Goldberg.
Hogan replied, “A lot of similarities. He has that extra spice. Bill had a certain thing. I had a certain thing. Rock had a certain thing. Bron Breakker has all of the above, plus he has a little extra spice on his plate. He’s ramped it up, and he’s just getting started. I can’t even imagine what’s going to happen when he really figures it out. He’s beyond the ‘quick kill’ protection. He can go, from what I see. He’s been broke in the correct way. He’s put the time in. He’s ready to go. Moving forward, I hope he learns and picks up more wisdom. Some guys are in the business for 15 to 20 years; they think they’re smart and they’re main event guys, but they never figure it out. I hope Bron Breakker figures it out. If he does, he’s going to be hard to deal with.”
Breakker will face Sami Zayn for the WWE Intercontinental Championship at WWE Money in the Bank.
