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.

Rey Mysterio’s road to the Royal Rumble may have hit an unexpected roadblock.
The WWE Hall of Famer was reportedly injured during this week’s episode of WWE Raw while competing in a singles rematch against Austin Theory. The bout was set up earlier in the show by Raw General Manager Adam Pearce, stemming from last week’s six-man tag team match that saw Mysterio team with Penta and Dragon Lee against Theory, Logan Paul, and Bronson Reed.
That prior encounter ended with controversy, as Pearce appeared just as Logan Paul attempted to use brass knuckles. The distraction allowed Mysterio to get his hands on the weapon and strike Theory, scoring the pinfall victory. On Raw, however, Theory managed to even the score — albeit with plenty of help.
During the rematch, interference from The Vision turned the tide. Penta and Dragon Lee rushed the ring to counter the numbers advantage, leading to a chaotic brawl at ringside. Amid the confusion, Theory capitalized by hitting a stomp on Mysterio to secure the pin.
Things only escalated after the bell. The Vision continued their assault on the luchadors, and Bron Breakker made his presence felt. Cameras quickly cut away as Breakker lined up Mysterio for a spear. When the broadcast returned, it was Penta who took the spear, followed by a Tsunami from Bronson Reed.
Despite the production switch, it was later reported that Mysterio had been legitimately hurt during the match itself. According to BodySlam’s Cory Hays, Rey was assisted to the back by WWE medical personnel following the segment, raising immediate concern about his condition.
The timing is especially unfortunate, as Mysterio is currently advertised for this Saturday’s Royal Rumble match. As of now, WWE has not confirmed the severity of the injury, nor whether Rey will be medically cleared to compete or pulled from the Rumble altogether.
Given Mysterio’s history of battling through injuries — and his importance to WWE’s ongoing storylines — fans will be anxiously awaiting updates on his status in the coming days.

AJ Styles is officially walking into the most dangerous match of his WWE career.
On the latest episode of WWE Raw, Styles confirmed that he has accepted GUNTHER’s brutal stipulation for their upcoming clash at the Royal Rumble event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: if Styles loses, his career is over.
The tension between the two started brewing in the fallout from GUNTHER’s shocking submission victory over John Cena in what was billed as Cena’s retirement match. Since forcing Cena to tap out at Saturday Night’s Main Event in December, the self-proclaimed “Ring General” has been on a victory lap, boasting weekly on Raw about ending the career of one of WWE’s greatest icons. That arrogance didn’t sit well with Styles, another longtime rival of Cena who felt compelled to step in and humble GUNTHER.
Their first encounter took place last week on Raw in Berlin, Germany, and it delivered exactly the kind of hard-hitting, technical battle fans expected. Styles appeared to have GUNTHER beaten after locking in the Calf Crusher and clearly forcing a tap out. The problem? The referee didn’t see it. While Styles argued his case, GUNTHER capitalized on the distraction and escaped with a controversial victory, leaving a massive question mark hanging over the result.
That unresolved finish led Styles to demand a rematch this week. GUNTHER, however, wasn’t interested in a simple do-over. Instead, he raised the stakes dramatically, agreeing to face Styles again only if “The Phenomenal One” was willing to put his entire career on the line. Initially hesitant, Styles later made his decision clear in a backstage segment with Raw General Manager Adam Pearce, officially accepting the challenge.
Now the rematch is set, and the implications couldn’t be bigger. This will be GUNTHER’s third match since retiring John Cena, and he’ll be looking to add another legendary name to his list by ending AJ Styles’ career on one of WWE’s biggest international stages.
Whether this marks the final chapter for Styles or another defining moment in GUNTHER’s dominant reign remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: Royal Rumble just became must-see viewing.

There may be real concern surrounding Stephanie Vaquer after this week’s episode of WWE RAW, as a new report confirms that her apparent injury is not just part of a storyline.
During RAW, WWE subtly hinted that Vaquer could be dealing with an injury, especially after she was attacked by Raquel Rodriguez following her in-ring segment. The angle immediately sparked speculation among fans that the attack was designed to write Vaquer off television, raising questions about whether the injury was legitimate.
According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select, those concerns are valid. Sapp has confirmed that Vaquer is indeed dealing with a real injury, though the exact severity remains unknown at this time. The good news, however, is that there are at least some optimistic signs.
Sapp noted that Vaquer has been seen wearing a walking boot rather than a full cast and was still able to do limited physicality. That combination suggests the injury may not be severe enough to require a long-term absence. With Vaquer having successfully defended her championship just last week, WWE may have some flexibility when it comes to managing her schedule.
If the injury turns out to be relatively minor, WWE could potentially stretch things out for several weeks. With the Royal Rumble approaching, creative could buy time through the Chamber event, allowing Vaquer to recover without immediately vacating the title or rushing her back into action.
For now, Vaquer’s status is something to keep a close eye on. While the injury is legitimate, all signs point to WWE hoping it won’t derail her momentum — or her reign — as the company heads into one of the busiest stretches of the year.
