Bronson Reed made his shocking return during WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event as he aligned himself with Seth Rollins, Paul Heyman and Bron Breakker and now the reason behind him joining the group has been revealed.

While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer talked about Bron Breakker joining Seth Rollins’ faction and why he was included. He said Reed adds something extra to the group and makes them stronger. One big reason is that when the group eventually has to lose a match, though that might not happen for a while, they don’t need to have Bron Breakker take the loss.

Meltzer noted that WWE clearly sees Breakker as a future WrestleMania main eventer, so they want to protect him. Bronson Reed isn’t being pushed to that level, but he’s very good at what he does and can take a loss without hurting the group.

“Yeah. I think it adds a dimension, and it makes the group even—it makes them even more of a strong group because also, the other thing with Bronson being there is that, you know, when you have the matches where they have to lose—and they probably won’t be doing much losing early on—but when you have those matches, you don’t have to beat Bron Breakker, who, you know, is obviously someone they have as a WrestleMania main eventer, whereas Bronson Reed is not going to be a WrestleMania main eventer. But, you know, I mean, he’s—he’s very good. He’s very good in his role.”

Reed, who had been out since injuring his ankle at Survivor Series: WarGames, made a massive return by crashing through a barricade and taking out CM Punk during the tag team match. Following that, he teamed up with Rollins and Breakker to brutally attack Punk after the match, beating him down with his devastating Tsunami finisher.

Bronson Reed’s surprise return and alliance with Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman wasn’t just for shock value since WWE obviously has big plans for Reed. Therefore, we’ll have to wait and see how the faction will continue to dominate the company in the coming weeks.
