Nic Nemeth Praises the Work Ethic of Bron Breakker

– During a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, former WWE Superstar Nic Nemeth (aka Dolph Ziggler) heavily praised the work ethic of his former onscreen rival, Bron Breakker, who was recently crowned WWE Intercontinental Champion. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):

Nic Nemeth on working with Bron Breakker in NXT: “A year or two ago, I did a 6 or 8-week thing with [Bron Breakker]. I was blown away that he was picking it up so quickly and so smart about things that you shouldn’t be smart about yet and … it’s probably like Randy [Orton] where it’s in your blood to have these reactions.”

On how Breakker exceeds beyond his experience: “Breakker seeming like he’s been there for 10 years at [age] 26 is really annoying because it’s like he’s ‘good’ and I’m like, ‘Come on man, you should be learning at this point.'”

During last Monday’s edition of WWE Raw, Breakker defeated Sami Zayn in a rematch to retain the Intercontinental Title. Later on, Triple H shared a photo on social media, labeling Breakker as “The future.”
