Report: Why Bron Breakker Wasn't Called Up To The Main Roster During WWE Draft Revealed

While he was one of the names tipped to move to the main roster during the recent WWE Draft, Bron Breakker ultimately remained on NXT. The former NXT Champion has established himself as a heel since losing the belt to Carmelo Hayes at Stand & Deliver on April 1 and his character appears to have been reinvigorated, especially as many felt Breakker had grown stale as a babyface.

According to WRKD Wrestling, Breakker was tentatively scheduled to be moved to either Raw or SmackDown in the WWE Draft but the decision was made to keep him on NXT for the time being so he can "better cultivate" his new heel persona. There are tentative plans for Breakker to instead make his way to the main roster after SummerSlam on Saturday, August 5.

WRKD Wrestling tweeted: "Regarding Bron Breakker going undrafted; we've heard there were tentative plans to draft Bron to the main roster, but officials are so impressed w/ his heel persona, he remained in NXT to better cultivate his character. There are tentative plans to call him up after SummerSlam."

Breakker has been a top star on NXT since the 2.0 rebrand in September 2021. He is a two-time NXT Champion.
