Fans were anticipating a dominant Brock Lesnar entrance at this year’s Royal Rumble. Despite rumors of Lesnar’s retirement, WWE has confirmed his presence at some major events. However, Lesnar did not appear at this particular Royal Rumble event.
Instead, NXT sensation Bron Breakker delivered a remarkable performance reminiscent of Lesnar’s supremacy. In a symbolic victory, youthful talent Dominik Mysterio tossed Bron in the Rumble match.
Who is Cora Jade’s boyfriend, Bron Breakker?
Last year, Bron Breakker and Cora Jade started dating. Born in Woodstock, Georgia, on October 24, 1997, Bron Breakker, the 26-year-old, is the son of former WCW World Tag Team Champion Rick Steiner. His 22-year-old girlfriend, Cora Jade, is three years his junior.
Breakker, a former NFL player and two-time NXT Champion, is one of the highest-paid wrestlers in NXT, claiming a net worth of $3 million and an annual salary of $150,000. He has a track record of success against prominent superstars such as Grayson Waller, Dolph Ziggler, Gunther, and more.

The connection between Cora Jade and Bron Breakker, who are featured heavily in “NXT,” is a reflection of their real-life romance. After months of dating, they revealed their relationship, and in an exclusive interview, Jade jokingly suggested that Breakker may take a cue from her wrestling prowess.
Why did Bron Breakker replace Brock Lesnar to fight Dominik Mysterio?
Renowned ring dominator Brock Lesnar was missing during this year’s Royal Rumble as a result of claims associated with Vince McMahon’s lawsuit. While Lesnar was out of commission, NXT’s Bron Breakker stepped up to the plate and played the role of Lesnar’s powerhouse.

The impact that the NXT star made with his lightning-fast entrance during the Royal Rumble was astonishing. Before losing to Dominik Mysterio, he quickly dispatched Jimmy Uso and Finn Balor, showed incredible power in defeating Omos, and so on. He has shown his promise as a future WWE star by securing four major eliminations during his limited stay.
According to Dave Meltzer, Breakker reversed Lesnar’s intended position in the main event, which was to square off against Gunther. Even though Cody Rhodes came out on top in the Men’s Royal Rumble, he proved he was ready with his wrestling prowess. During an interview backstage, the 26-year-old conveyed his appreciation, highlighting his skills, and announcing his willingness to be on the main roster.
“Tonight I proved I belong on the main-roster, this is my home now & I’m ready for the work.”
