Bron Breakker is being given a clear lane to the top of WWE.

Seth Rollins’ injury absence has given the second-generation star the chance to prove without a doubt what we already know — that he belongs with the biggest stars in the industry and to be in WrestleMania main events for a long time.

Breakker, the son of the legendary Rick Steiner, has been thrust to the front of his faction now, already taking the on-screen lead with Paul Heyman to craft plans heading into his tag match with Bronson Reed against two of WWE’s biggest babyfaces in Jey Uso and Roman Reigns at SummerSlam at MetLife Stadium on Saturday (6 p.m., Peacock).

Two weeks ago on Raw, Breakker’s presence and intensity made him look like he belonged in the ring with Reigns during a promo.
