Welcome to the Busted Open Podcast. This is Dave LaGreca. On today's episode, myself and Bully Ray Talk, Monday Night Raw, and an injury to Braun Breaker, which can completely change the road to WrestleMania. Also, Elimination Chamber, Finn Balor, and CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship. Could that match change the route to WrestleMania? All that right now on the Busted Open Podcast. This is the Busted Open Podcast. Braun Breaker, one hell of a 2025. Probably somebody that we're saying is gonna have an outstanding 2026. High expectations for Braun Breaker. going into this year's WrestleMania bully, and this is what happens in sports all the time. You never know when an injury's gonna uh occur, according to Paul Heyman.
Hiatal hernia just had surgery out indefinitely. The commentators at the beginning of the show said he had surgery out indefinitely. They didn't say why. Later on Heyman said hiatal hernia surgery, so We're gonna have Doctor Chow. Who does injury reports for Fox Sports and for here for Sirius XM sports? So he's probably gonna give us a better timetable later on in the show when it comes to this injury. But bully you never want to hear coming out of the rumble? That there's a major injury? And we're getting it with Braun Breaker. A couple of years ago it was CM Punk. This year it's Braun Breaker.
Obviously you never want An injury to occur in your career period. You never want a an injury to occur when you are on your way up. At the first ECW pay per view barely legal. I shattered my ankle. I was gonna be out for about Three months or so. And it was the absolute worst timing for me to get hurt. And after three days I ripped off my own cast, I put a walking boot on and I continued to wrestle and somehow got past it because I knew that me and Divon's momentum could not be stopped at that moment. Braun. Is down for a while. Or at least that's what they want us to believe. Right now, what's going on in the world of WWE? Anything they can say anything they want and work us. He might do a run-in next week.
They pulled back the curtain on Unreal with Seth's injury. So if Braun were to come back next week, I'd be like, oh, okay. You wouldn't shock me because you already told me how you did the trick and shocked me the first time. But let's assume they're not doing that. Let's assume that this is all legit. He's hurt.
How did Bron Breaker’s hiatal hernia injury happen and what is its expected timeline?
Worst possible timing for him to get hurt. He's on the rise. Trajectory heading uh north. Um, hell of a all the positives we can possibly do. possibly think of when it comes to Bon Braun Breaker and a and him getting hurt now. But if there's one thing that I have seen in wrestling, and this has never happened to me or me and Divon, because we've never had to take time off for injury. Thank God, knock on wood, the good Lord has always protected us very, very well. But when guys do get injured and they go on the shelf for a period of time. Sometimes it works out really, really well. It actually works out most times really really well because absence makes the heart grow fonder. You're away from the product and they bring you back as a surprise.
They bring you back and people are like, holy shit, he's back, she's back, and you wind up Doing better than where you were in the first place. Now, I don't know how much better you could do uh than where Braun is right now, but this could work out for him. Maybe the wrestling gods were saying, you know what, kid, this is not the right time. We have a better time planned out for you. I don't wanna see Braun go on the shelf. I never see wanna see any of the boys, any of the guys and girls get hurt. But a hyena hurting you is a pretty big thing. And from the reports that are out there, not reports, rumors. The rumors that are out there, his seems a little bit more significant than others. You know, when you have a regular hernia di just from the little bit that I know about hernias.
They gotta cut you open. They gotta put the mesh in to hold the hernia down. They gotta restuff your guts back inside because your guts start to protrude or stick out from your muscle wall and the lining.
