NXT Champ Bron Breakker will be featured as WWE’s NXT returns to its Florida house show schedule — The Coconut Loop, The Citrus Circuit — beginning June 10 in Tampa.

Here is my audio interview with The Champ as he talks touring Florida, the NXT Roster, the WWE PC, football, his famous dad, his ring name, Triple H and more.

Breakker, 24, a former state champion wrestler for Etowah High School in Woodstock, Georgia, also starred in football. He played collegiately at Kennesaw State University in Georgia and spent a few months with the Baltimore Ravens, before opting for pro wrestling.

WCW alum “The Swing Man” Johnny Swinger of Impact Wrestling is also a graduate of Etowah High School.

Breakker has grasped the concept quickly, making tremendous strides in a short period of time, since training at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando. His favorite wrestler Triple H.

Breakker made his pro debut on October 8, 2020, in Ringgold, Georgia at “WrestleJam 8.” He signed with WWE in February 2021.

On Jan. 4, 2022, Breakker defeated Tommaso Ciampa for the NXT title. In March, Dolph Ziggler pinned Ciampa in a triple threat match (with Breakker) for the NXT title, but Breakker regained the championship in April in a 1-on-1 battle with Ziggler.

His father, Rick Steiner, is a WWE Hall of Famer, and his dad has been very helpful and supportive in all of Breakker’s endeavors. His uncle, Scott Steiner, is also a WWE Hall of Famer.

Roberts said the car is sitting on his desk. Ohtani hit his eighth home run, and surpassed Roberts' mark, with a solo shot to right-

Status quo for the leading four teams in Super Rugby Pacific after 11 rounds
Super Rugby Pacific’s playoff race changed only marginally in the weekend’s 11th round as the pacemakers showed few signs of faltering and the others jostled to keep up. Behind them, the Queensland Reds moved up to fifth with a win over the defending champion Crusaders, the Melbourne Rebels dropped back to sixth after losing to the Blues, the Dunedin, New Zealand-based Highlanders are in seventh place after a win over Moana Pasifika in the first Super Rugby match played in Tonga, and the Fijian Drua hung on to remain in the top eight. Moana Pasifika is now three points behind the Drua in ninth place, the Christchurch-based Crusaders are a further point back in 10th, the New South Wales Waratahs are a full five points behind the Drua in 11th and the last-place Western Force are all but out of the race.
