Bron Breakker says he and Baron Corbin are on a different level.
Bron Breakker and Baron Corbin have quickly risen to the top of the tag team division in NXT. They joined forces for the 2024 Men's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic and won the tournament at NXT Vengeance Day. The duo then defeated Tony D'Angelo and Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo to win the NXT Tag Team Championship on the February 13 episode of NXT.
Speaking on WWE's The Bump, Bron Breakker and Baron Corbin discussed their success as a team. Breakker stated that he believes that they are the best team in the world.
"I truly believe, I mean there’s a lot of great tag teams out there, a lot of great teams in the world. There’s a lot of top-notch tag teams in WWE, but I believe that he and I are the best tag team in the world. I really don’t think that people truly understand what is going on in front of them, what this tag team, this bond really is. Less than one percent of people in the world make it to the NFL. We both did that. We both played in the NFL. The percentage of us being in the NFL, coming to WWE, and teaming up is like winning the lottery and getting struck by lightning 211 times. It’s unbelievable. I just think we’re on a different level right now, I really do. I think performing on a different level, we’re entertaining on a different level, we are just firing on all cylinders," Breakker said.
Corbin responded by highlighting how they can flip a switch when they compete, and not many others have that. He shared his belief that they could beat the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions The Judgment Day (Damian Priest and Finn Balor), as he expressed his confidence that they could take on anyone.
"He said it a couple weeks ago on TV. We’re out there, we’re having fun, we’re backstage, we’re having fun. But when that bell rings, there’s a switch, and not many people have that switch. They don’t have the ability to go from having a good time to cutting somebody in half, and I think that’s something that we bring to the table. We elevate each other, it becomes a completion. Who can throw this guy further? Who can hit this guy harder? Who can do the most damage? We start egging each other on and getting each other going. We were just talking about [how] on Raw and SmackDown right now, they’re having this big thing for tag teams to compete and go to WrestleMania and compete in a [Six-Pack Challenge] and we’re going, we’re holding the straps in NXT. We should get a shot at those. That should be something we can get. We can go and we can cut whoever in half that we need to Saturday morning at NXT, and then we can go on to WrestleMania, and I think we can take those titles off of Judgment Day. I think we can handle anybody in the ring. He says best in the world, and that includes all those teams in WWE that are thinking that they’re on our level. We got eight weeks in the bank together, and we’re already tag champs. That speaks volumes to what we can accomplish," Corbin said.
During the interview, Corbin noted that his contract was coming up at the end of 2023. Check out his comments here.
