And are we really supposred to beleive after jobbing Finn Balor out time and time again that now he's going to beat CM Punk for the world title. I WISH!!!Bron Breakker is supposed to be unhinged. He’s supposed to be dangerous. He’s supposed to be the guy that even authority figures fear. Instead, we got Adam Pearce yelling in his face, standing his ground, and walking away like nothing happened. Braun barely put his hands on him… and then just let go.That makes Bron Breakker look weak. Period.When you present a character as a monster, you can’t suddenly have him show restraint for no reason. If Bron snaps, he should SNAP. The segment should’ve ended with chaos, not Adam Pearce scolding him like a child.There were good things on Raw. **Gunther vs AJ Styles delivered exactly what you’d expect, and Raquel Rodriguez looked like a legitimate force again. But the Bronn Breakker moment stands out because it actively hurt his momentum.If WWE wants Bronn to be a future main-event monster, they need to stop pulling punches and let him be exactly what he’s supposed to be.
