Bron Breakker’s momentum has hit an unfortunate roadblock, as a new report indicates the powerhouse star has undergone surgery to repair a significant hernia. The news comes via the Wrestling Observer, and as of now, there’s no clear timeline for when Breakker could be back in action.
The injury didn’t stop Breakker from making headlines during Royal Rumble weekend. Entering the Men’s Royal Rumble at No. 2, he was taken out before even stepping into the ring after being blindsided by a mysterious hooded attacker. Despite that, Breakker eventually made it into the match, only to be eliminated later on by Oba Femi.
What raised eyebrows was that Breakker still appeared on the RAW that followed, unleashing a chaotic rampage around the ringside area. His destruction became the backdrop for LA Knight confronting Logan Paul and Austin Theory, adding another layer of intrigue to an already wild segment. Paul Heyman later addressed the situation, claiming Breakker was looking for a fight with Knight, but said Knight had already been escorted from the arena. Heyman also suggested officials should remove Breakker as well, further teasing internal tension.
Behind the scenes, Breakker had been heavily rumored as Seth Rollins’ WrestleMania 42 opponent, though WWE never made the match official. Rollins is reportedly on track to be medically cleared in time for the show, but Breakker’s surgery now puts that potential showdown in doubt.
For now, WWE is keeping things quiet regarding Breakker’s recovery, leaving fans to wonder how long he’ll be sidelined and whether WrestleMania plans will need to change. Given how prominently he’s been featured, his absence would be a significant shake-up — both creatively and on the road to WrestleMania.
