Booker T Tells Bron Breakker He “Can’t Get Complacent”

On a recent episode of his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T took a look at Bron Breakker’s performance in WWE NXT and offered some advice for the wrestler (via WrestlingNews.co). According to Booker, Breakker needs to adjust his performance intensity and reconnect with the fans who were so excited by his debut in 2021. You can read a few highlights from the podcast and listen to the complete episode below.

On the vital aspect of connecting with the audience: “One piece of advice I can give Bron Breakker is you might need to listen to the fans. You can’t get complacent in this business and think that the fans are going to stick with you. The one thing that you need to make it to that next level is the fans. The fans dictate everything.”

On what Breakker needs to overcome in order to reignite his performances: “The one thing with Bron Breakker is he’s got like one gear. He needs to figure out when he’s riding in first, second, third, and fourth, and when he needs to shift it into fifth. That’s something that right now he’s in that mode to where he’s learning that.”

On the need for Breakker to add more variety: “Hopefully he’ll hear this interview and go, ‘Coach, what do you mean by that’, because you have to be innovative in this business. You have to be able to give the fans a bone every now and then. You got to be able to let them smell, you know, lift the pot a little bit and let them smell what’s cooking up underneath. The thing is, you got to be able to mix what’s in that pot up on a weekly basis. If I’m just eating chicken, chicken, chicken, I’m going to get tired of just eating chicken. I want some steak. If I just eat steak too long, give me some lobster. You have to be able to mix it up, especially when you’re champion.”
