Bron Breakker says he’s just getting started with what he’s capable of.
During a recent edition of the “Casual Conversations with the Classic” podcast, the former WWE Intercontinental Champion commented on his journey in WWE so far and what he wants to show people next. He said,
“It’s been a crazy journey, man. It’s just been such a cool thing to be a part of and I just got to keep building, keep stacking days and just keep progressing, going in the right direction.”
He continued, “I think this is just the very beginning for me and what I’m capable of doing in the ring, what I’m capable of doing on the microphone. I think that’s specifically one area that people really haven’t seen me and what I can do, but I’m excited to show everybody and it’s just going to be a great time, man. We’re going to have some fun.”
During a recent appearance on the “Developmentally Speaking” podcast, PJ Black commented on his original tryout with WWE and not getting the reaction he hoped for from Dusty Rhodes.
The former Justin Gabriel signed a developmental deal with WWE in 2008 and was part of the Nexus faction.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On his tryout: “Long story short, I got invited to the tryout in FCW in Florida, so I flew to the US and FCW at the time, in Tampa. I walked into this office, and there’s Dr. Tom Prichard, Steve Keirn, Norman Smiley, Dustin Rhodes. And it was very intimidating, and they popped my tape in…they watched this tape, and I thought the match was fantastic. It was one of my favorite matches ever. And I was playing this stripper/porn star character at the time, did a decent promo and everything. And when they were finished, they all kind of looked at each other, it got quiet, and I was like ‘Oh shoot.’ And Dusty was like ‘Well, you can’t wrestle for s**t, but you can do all the other stuff.’”
On the delay in his signing after tryout match: “It took them about year to get my work papers to work in the US, so during those twelve months, I was just…I got a job at the gym. I was just working really hard. I was like ‘Wow, the dream is finally going to come true. I’m going to be paid to just full time wrestle.’ So I got into really good shape, worked on some character stuff, got some really cool gear. And then I ended up moving to Tampa, Florida where FCW was at the time, and probably one of the most fun years of my life in wrestling.”
