7 WWE Stars Bron Breakker Could Add to His Faction as New ‘Leader,’ Including Bayley and Dragon Lee

On this week’s edition of Monday Night Raw, Bron Breakker seemingly took firm control of the faction once led by Seth Rollins. With the “Visionary” sidelined with an injury, the group that includes Bronson Reed and Paul Heyman seemed leaderless since Rollins went down. However, Breakker suggested this week that he is now in charge, and he got off to a good start as the new leader by leaving Roman Reigns and Jey Uso laid out to end Raw.

If the remains the new leader of the group in the months ahead, we take a look at seven WWE stars he could add to fill Rollins’ spot.

Ilia Dragunov went down with a serious knee injury last year. But he should be closing in on a return soon. Breakker and Reed are both ultra-talented young stars the company is grooming for the future. Dragunov was viewed in a similar light until his injury. He could be an intriguing option to join the group. Especially since he is just as elite a wrestler as Rollins and fills that void nicely.

Josh Briggs seems to be at a crossroads in NXT. He could be headed into a serious title program with Oba Femi, or it wouldn’t be surprising if his time on the brand is over. Maybe he could be a new member of Breakker’s faction to continue his WWE career? He would bring another monstrous tough guy with good athleticism. Further making them the scariest grouping of athletes on the roster.

If the faction had added a female member, Rollins’ wife Becky Lynch would seem like a good fit. However, what if Breakker went in a very different direction and added a lost legend who recently feuded with Lynch in Bayley? Bayley needs a fresh direction to go in. Joining the faction would stun many. But maybe her unexpected addition adds to a developing divide between Breakker and Rollins, and sets up a rumored feud in the future.

Dragon Lee has hit a ceiling in his WWE career. As much as anyone on the roster, he seems in need of a major change. A turn to the dark side by joining Bron Breakker’s group would certainly do that, and he would add a new element to the team. Plus, with Penta likely to remain an adversary of the faction, a feud between him and an evil Lee could be dynamite.

Carmelo Hayes

Another young star that WWE sees a lot of potential in is Carmelo Hayes. Being backed by someone like Heyman and aligned with Breakker and Reed would be huge for his career. He would offer the group a high-level bump taker and some extra cocky flair they lack with Rollins sidelined.

Rusev is an aggressive powerhouse in the mold of Breakker and Reed. Plus, he also seems like a guy who would have had Heyman as his advocate in an alternate universe. Having the veteran join the group would be unexpected, but give them a talented performer who could be a good teammate with Reed in a potential tag team.

Pete Dunne & Tyler Bate

Speaking of tag teams, maybe Breakker goes a different route and adds a team to the faction. With the WWE tag division as deep and talented as ever, it would make sense. Plus, many of the companies’ factions over the last three decades have often featured a defined team. Tyler Bate and Pete Dunne could be a good fit for that role. They are both strong wrestlers, could benefit from the alliance, and, like Hayes, would be great bump takers when battling the factions’ foes.
