Bron Breakker is at the top of the NXT division once again, as he took down Dolph Ziggler on WWE RAW to become the new NXT Champion. This title win marked the first time the gold changed hands on RAW.
Two days after he lost to Ziggler at NXT Stand & Deliver, Breakker came to RAW aiming to do whatever it took to become champion. In a big match against Ziggler, Breakker nearly stumbled a few times, but was eventually able to gather himself long enough to win. Late in the match, Ziggler hit him with a Superkick, but Breakker kicked out. As Ziggler set up for another Superkick, though, Breakker hit him with a Spear, before standing him up for the Press Powerslam and the win. As a result, Breakker is now a two-time NXT Champion.
