# WWE Bron Breakker and Oba Femi rivalry > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/wwe-bron-breakker-and-oba-femi-rivalry > Updated: 2026-09-03T18:14:15.000Z. Sources: 20. Developments: 8. The rivalry between WWE stars Bron Breakker and Oba Femi, which traces back to Femi eliminating Breakker at the Royal Rumble, has reached a formal turning point. Following escalating tensions on RAW involving Paul Heyman and confrontations regarding their status as the future of the company, WWE has officially announced a match between the two athletes for the inaugural ‘Sunday Night’s Main Event’ on September 6 at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. On the August 17 episode of RAW, Paul Heyman intervened to prevent an impromptu match, stating that marquee matchups between main-eventers must be properly promoted to maximize impact for both fans and shareholders. This led to a high-stakes contract signing scheduled for the August 24 episode of RAW to finalize the bout. As the match approaches, the personal animosity has intensified. Breakker has expressed high personal ambitions, stating he aims to be remembered as “one of the greatest athletes to ever work for WWE,” emphasizing his intensity and work ethic over championship counts. Conversely, Femi has criticized Breakker’s motivations, accusing him of seeking his position because he believes it is his “birthright due to his family's wrestling legacy.” Recent developments highlight the contrasting trajectories of the competitors. Femi enters the matchup following major victories, including a win over Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 42. Meanwhile, Breakker seeks to rebuild momentum following an injury and a recent loss in the King-of-the-Ring tournament. Amidst this buildup, reports suggest Breakker’s cousin, former NFL wide receiver Brock Rechsteiner, may join WWE after Breakker encouraged him to pursue professional wrestling. Ahead of the September 6 broadcast on Peacock, Femi has reflected on his rapid career ascent. He noted a desire for direct, unvarnished criticism from leadership, specifically requesting that Triple H point out his mistakes without sugarcoating them. ## Claims - Oba Femi and Bron Breakker are scheduled to face each other in a match.
