Come the first Raw of 2026, Bron Breakker should follow through on his promise of steamrolling through CM Punk to capture the World Heavyweight Championship.
Falling short when it matters most yet looking credible in defeat while doing so isn’t enough to salvage whatever momentum he has from putting Seth Rollins on the shelf in October.
There’s no need for WWE to wait to give Breakker his crowning moment until WrestleMania 42 when he can instead open the new year as the new champion.
Roman Reigns, meanwhile, has been feuding with The Vision since the spring and has lost his last two matches against the group. If Rollins isn’t cleared for the event, Breakker is the next best possible opponent for The Tribal Chief, if not significantly stronger considering they have yet to clash in singles competition.
Breakker is ready to be pushed to prime time now and that includes headlining ‘Mania. The idea of Reigns being involved in another world title main event may be infuriating to some, but it would be worth it if The Badass wins and uses that victory to solidify his status as the top dog on Monday nights.
