Bron Breakker recently spoke with Scott Fishman of TV Insider to discuss a variety of topics, including his current run in WWE and who has helped him make the transition from NXT to the main roster.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On his current run in WWE: “I’m enjoying it. It has been a lot of fun. I’m just striking while the iron is hot. I’m just trying to ride it for as long as I can.”
On who has helped him make the transition from WWE NXT to the main roster: “It has been a combination of a lot of people. Paul Heyman is someone who has been a crucial hand in me on the main roster. CM Punk as well. So many people. The whole locker room has been so helpful in some form or fashion. Since being up here, it has been great to be a part of everything.”
As most of you know by now, WWE NXT will be heading over to The CW Network this fall.
