This week on Raw, the WWE Universe witnessed a casualty, pun intended. It so happened when Bron Breakker started steaming towards Carlito and speared the latter in half. That spot was so intense that the netizens even hailed it as the greatest spear to ever come into existence. Now, since the Judgment Day member proverbially died on the spot from it, what’s next?
The Bad Apple took to X last afternoon and posted that his funeral is scheduled for this Friday. He even expressed gratitude to everyone wishing him well and quipped that his family demands privacy at the moment. The comments section underneath his lighthearted post soon got flooded with more hilarious responses.
One user posted that Carlito is so cool that he’s posting stuff beyond his grave. Cognizant of the engagement the aforementioned spear is getting on social media, WWE even posted a slow-mo version of it. But did Bron stop after wiping out Carlito? Not at all.
Thank you everyone for your thought & prayers! …..my funeral service is scheduled for this Friday.

In fact, The Caribbean Cool was merely an afterthought for the reigning IC Champion as he made a beeline for Dominik Mysterio. Dirty Dom had just eaten up a pinfall loss at the hands of Penta. However, after the match was over, Carlito blindsided the Mexican grappler and was assisted by Dominik in the process.
Breakker made his way out, put Carlito to sleep, and clocked Mysterio with a spear as well in the ring. The Unpredictable Badass had one up his sleeve for Penta as well. However, Finn Balor attacked the 27-year-old from behind but couldn’t stamp his authority. At the end, the Irishman had to retreat from an irate Steiner descendant.
As viral of a spot as it was, Bron Breakker even did his legendary uncle, Scott Steiner, proud. The Big Poppa Pump quoted a reply to WWE’s post of Breakker cutting Carlito in half, saying, “The match checks out.” By the looks of it, one-half of The Steiner Brothers is impressed by his nephew’s unbridled intensity.
Scott also reacted to the now-official Fatal 4-Way match for the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 41. It’ll feature the champ, Breakker, defending against Penta, Finn Balor, and Dominik Mysterio. WWE’s post about it on X had a caption that said that each man has a 25% chance of winning at WrestleMania.

However, taking offense to it, Bron’s legendary uncle doesn’t seem happy about the lack of “Steiner Math” from the admin. The 62-year-old asked his followers whether he should teach the company how it works. Nonetheless, The Genetic Freak must be grinning at the fact that Breakker is taking the Steiner legacy to unprecedented heights. The former Wolfdogs member has many years ahead of him in the business.
While it was rumored for a long time that Paul Heyman was closely working with Bron Breakker behind-the-scenes, Triple H confirmed it last month. The WWE Chief Content Officer told the Hollywood Reporter that Heyman’s been entrusted to oversee the holistic development of The Unpredictable Badass as a character.
Paul is also helping him out with his promos. The Game added that The Wiseman acts as a conduit between Breakker and the creative team at WWE. Heyman also reports to The Cerebral Assassin about his observations of Breakker and what could be done with him next.
The Intercontinental Champion recently expressed reverence for Mr. Heyman while speaking on SHAK Wrestling. Bron also reminisced about his Royal Rumble spot with Roman Reigns this year and said that he sees The OTC as his dream opponent.
