A year ago, Bron Breakker’s future in WWE seemed certain. He was positioned to become the leading figure in the company and eventually hold the World Heavyweight Championship. However, injuries to himself and his team, plus the emergence of talents like Oba Femi, have created obstacles. This was highlighted in the recent episode of “Monday Night Raw.”

Last week, Breakker decisively defeated Joe Hendry and expressed his frustration further after losing to Austin Theory by confronting Akira Tozawa. Femi then confronted Breakker, leading to a tense exchange before they both seemed to calm down.
Amid these events, Breakker sought approval from Paul Heyman. He was unsettled by Heyman’s agreement with Lesnar that Femi represents WWE’s future. Heyman didn’t directly address the question but acknowledged his respect for Femi. “Truth be told, I respect Oba Femi. He fulfilled his promises against Brock Lesnar, and I must admire that,” Heyman stated.
Breakker pressed for more: “I think you’re starting to think that Oba Femi is the future of WWE and that’s the problem,” Heyman replied. “I’ll continue respecting Oba Femi until you prove otherwise.” These comments have left Breakker pondering his next moves.
Since joining the main WWE roster, Breakker has made significant impacts with his powerful spears, quickly earning intercontinental and tag team titles. On the other hand, Femi, who won the King of the Ring Tournament and ousted Lesnar, has shown fearlessness against any opponent.
