Wrestling veteran praises Bron Breakker, comparing him to the former WWE Champion

Speaking on his YouTube Channel, professional wrestling veteran and legendary booker Jim Cornette heaped praises on former Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker.

He lauded Bron's pairing with Paul Heyman, comparing him with Brock Lesnar.

"Paul is stepping up and being a spokesperson for Bron Breakker. It worked for Brock and Bron's a whole lot more natural pro wrestling talent than Brock Lesnar was. So, that is good. And that's what we were hoping would happen in Seth's absence," Cornette said on The Jim Cornette Experience. [2:16 - 2:35]

It will be interesting to see what plans the Triple H-led creative team has in store for Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed after they suffered a heartbreaking loss against Roman Reigns and Jey Uso at the Biggest Party of the Summer, and whether the two-time WWE Intercontinental Champion is fit after the scary spot he caught himself on the PLE.
