Goldberg Says Nothing Can Stop Bron Breakker, Except His Height

With his electric speed, impressive power, incredible spear and unbeatable aura, reigning Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker has understandably received a fair bit of comparison to multi-time world champion and WWE Hall Of Famer Goldberg. Many have viewed Breakker as someone guaranteed for success down the line in WWE, and Goldberg agrees with this notion. 

When speaking on the Ariel Helwani show, Goldberg spoke on Breakker, and stated that his height was the only thing that could hold him back. 

"We have a relationship that goes back 20 years, almost. Riding with his dad and uncle, I learned a lot in the business. That kid was growing up just like Gage did when I retired a couple of times ago. We knew he was always going to be a dude, just like us, following in our footsteps in a certain way, whether it was in the business or another endeavor. He and I spoke a lot when he was in college playing football. We spoke in high school when he was playing football. We spoke when he was attempting to play in the NFL and we’ve spoken a number of times since he’s turned into who he has at WWE. I’d say we’re really close. We don’t wear it on our sleeves, but people don’t ask. We’re extremely close, and I see a lot of myself in him. If it wasn’t for his respect for me and my respect for him, people have tried to get him to do more things that I kind of did. Whether it’s a phone call to me or a ‘no,’ he’s a great and wonderful kid. His only limitation is his height. That’s it. There ain’t nothing in the world that can stop him. Unless he can grow eight inches taller, that’s the only thing in the world that can stop that kid. That’s a formidable resume right there. That kid deserve everything. The sky is the limit for him. To be compared to his 4.3 40-yard dash and delivering his spear, I’ll take that."

Goldberg is set to compete in his retirement match in 2025, revealing himself as close to getting cleared to compete. In the same interview, Goldberg also revealed the original plans for his retirement bout.
