Bron Breakker, a rising star in WWE, has recently undergone surgery for a significant hernia, as reported by Dave Meltzer. This news comes at a critical time for the wrestling world, with WrestleMania 42 on the horizon in just two months, set to take place in Las Vegas.
The timing of Breakker’s surgery raises concerns, particularly regarding his participation at WrestleMania. The hernia issue sheds light on his recent booking during the Royal Rumble match, where he entered at number two only to be swiftly eliminated by a masked individual. Following this unexpected outcome, he was sent home by Raw General Manager Adam Pearce, an angle that now appears to be linked to his health struggles.
Prior to the injury, there were strong indications that Breakker could have been positioned for a significant role in this year’s WrestleMania, potentially contending for the championship. Instead, the event will feature a headline match between Roman Reigns and CM Punk, marking a shift in the lineup that many had anticipated might include Breakker.
While the recovery timeline for hernia surgery can vary, there remains a glimmer of hope that Breakker could return in time for WrestleMania. However, it is almost certain he will miss the upcoming Elimination Chamber event. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely as updates on his health and recovery progress in the coming weeks.
