Nic Nemeth has full confidence in Bron Breakker.
While his WWE career may be over (for now), Nic Nemeth is keeping an eye on one talent he believes to be the future of the company. During a recent Q&A session at the 2024 For The Love of Wrestling event, Nemeth was asked to identify a talent who could potentially be “the next big thing” in wrestling. In response, Nemeth recalled his previous feud with former NXT Champion Bron Breakker, who is also the son of WWE Hall of Famer Rick Steiner.
“I went to NXT for about a month and a half, maybe two years ago, and I got to work with Bron Breakker. They said ‘This kid’s got a hell of a future. Let’s see how it goes out there,'” Nemeth recounted. “I got in the ring with him, [and he’s an] absolute sweetheart, hardworking, nice, humble. I got to help him on a few things and we got to have some good matches.”
“Everyone always asks me ‘Who do you like? What’s going on?’ I go ‘I famously don’t watch wrestling, [but] man, I was in the ring with this young kid Steiner in NXT, and I really think there’s something there really big.’ Not just like ‘Oh, you’re good.’ Everybody’s good. When you see that mindset and that attack speed linebacker, and then you start seeing the brain process start happening too, I go, man, that’s the future. He’s got a long one if it all works out.”
Aside from his two reigns as WWE NXT Champion, Bron Breakker currently reigns as one-half of the NXT Tag Team Champions, alongside Baron Corbin. Breakker also serves as one of the newest members of the SmackDown roster.
