There has been widespread debate among wrestling fans and experts about whether Bron Breakker’s spear or Roman Reigns’ spear is the superior finishing move. Despite the intense discussions, Reigns himself downplays the importance of such comparisons, emphasizing that a finishing maneuver is simply that, a finishing move.
Speaking on The Pat McAfee Show, Reigns said,
If I was a young insignificant performer, then I would take a little bit of offense or I feel some competitive nature about that, but a finishing move is a finishing move,
highlighting how his perspective goes beyond just the move itself.

He continued by acknowledging Breakker’s athleticism but stressed that evolution and mastering various skills are crucial as wrestlers mature in their careers.
It’s not just about running down a ramp and flying through the air and hitting somebody,
Reigns added,
[Breakker] is a great athlete, but we all are. And as you get older, you got to evolve. You got to you got to learn all the different nuances to this game. You got to sharpen every blade in your set.
Bron Breakker’s Rising Career and Ongoing Challenges
