During the 2026 Men’s Royal Rumble, Bron Breakker was surprisingly attacked by a masked assailant shortly after entering the ring as the second competitor. This led to an unusually swift elimination when former NXT Champion Oba Femi tossed Breakker out in just ten seconds. WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray speculates that one of Breakker’s own allies might have played a role in this sudden exit. On Busted Open Radio, Ray noted that the last four wrestlers remaining were Roman Reigns, GUNTHER, Randy Orton, and Logan Paul, with Paul making it all the way to the end. Ray questioned whether Logan Paul, unlike what fans might expect, is willing to share the spotlight and suggested that Paul’s actions could have contributed to Breakker’s early elimination despite the group’s plans.
Prior to the event on January 31st, WWE RAW General Manager Adam Pearce confirmed that all four members of The Vision faction—Breakker, Logan Paul, Bronson Reed, and Austin Theory—would participate in the men’s Royal Rumble. Recognizing their numbers advantage, Paul proposed they work as a team to increase their chances of victory, especially to help Breakker win. However, once Breakker went out early, the remaining trio’s alliance was disrupted when Reed and Theory were eliminated by LA Knight. “Maverick” (Logan Paul) continued to survive until Roman Reigns finally removed him during the final four phase, as Bully Ray pointed out.
Fan Take: This development adds a fresh layer of intrigue to WWE storylines by hinting at betrayal within a top faction, keeping fans guessing about loyalties and future alliances. It also raises the stakes for upcoming matches, as internal conflicts could dramatically shift the balance of power in WWE.
