Bron Breakker undergoes hernia surgery
Bron Breakker is out of action.
Dave Meltzer reported in today’s Daily Update that Breakker recently underwent hernia surgery, and his timeframe for a return isn’t currently known.
“Bron Brekker had surgery for a serious hernia. No word on how long he’ll be out,” he wrote.
Breakker was last physical during the men’s Royal Rumble match. He entered at number 2 but before entering the ring was taken out by a masked man, heavily implied to be Seth Rollins. The masked man gave Breakker a stomp before exiting through the crowd. Breakker did make it to the ring, but was eliminated by the number one entrant Oba Femi.
Following his dubious Rumble appearance, an irate Breakker showed up to Monday’s Raw in a rage, upset that he had been embarassed. He destroyed the ringside area and got in the announcer’s faces, forcing general manager Adam Pearce to throw him out of the building.
It was reported this week that Breakker was originally slated to win the Royal Rumble match. However, changes to the WrestleMania card led to Reigns winning instead and choosing CM Punk for his WrestleMania 42 opponent.
