Michael Cole might have said it best when the bell rang to end the opening match at Backlash: "Bron Breakker has arrived."

Breakker defeated Seth Rollins a brutal fight between a rising star and a multi-time champion. Breakker needed to out-wrestle and out-maneuver Rollins throughout the match to gain a split-second advantage over him.

It helped that he had Paul Heyman in his corner, and thus, the rest of The Vision. Rollins took his eyes off Breakker for a few moments to hit Austin Theory with a chair and a Stomp and chase Logan Paul out of the ring area. As Rollins got back into the ring, Breakker hit him with a spear.

While Rollins wasn’t out of it completely, he went up to the middle rope for an Avalanche Stomp. But Breakker hit Rollins with a spear as "The Visionary" came off the rope. He then setup a groggy Rollins in the middle of the ring, bounced off the ropes to gain momentum and nailed Rollins with a torpedo spear.

It was Breakker’s first match since he appeared in the Royal Rumble back in January. He made his dynamite return at WrestleMania 42, costing Rollins a victory against Gunther.
