Bron Breakker (Credit: Getty Images)Bron Breakker has quickly become one of WWE’s biggest young stars, but long before he was hitting those powerful spears and collecting championships, the Rechsteiner family had already made a noticeable mark in professional wrestling. While Breakker has shaped his own identity inside the ring, his momentum and success are still closely tied to a family that has influenced the sport for decades.Bron grew up around people who contributed to his athletic career and mindset, from a WWE Hall of Fame father to a legendary uncle and a mother who instilled a strong work ethic. Here’s a closer look at the family behind one of WWE’s brightest stars.Who are Bron Breakker's parents?Bron Breakker, whose real name is Bronson Rechsteiner, was born on October 24, 1997, in Woodstock, Georgia. He is the youngest son of Rick Steiner and Jayme McKenzie.His father, Rick Steiner, is one of the most respected names in wrestling history. Fans better know him as the “Dog-Faced Gremlin.” Rick built an outstanding career across WCW, WWE and several other promotions. With his younger brother Scott Steiner, he helped form the Steiner Brothers, a legendary tag team that many people still call one of the best in the whole business. Bron has often talked about how much influence his father had on him. Rather than celebrating every success, Rick constantly challenged his son to do better, which mindset helped Bron get ready for a career in professional sports.Meanwhile, his mother, Jayme McKenzie, stayed away from the wrestling spotlight, but she still mattered a lot. She played an equally big role in raising Bron and his brothers. A former softball player at Oklahoma State, she encouraged all three of her sons to stay engaged in sports, and has been credited by Bron for teaching him discipline and hard work.Family memberRelation to Bron BreakkerKnown forRick Steiner (Robert Rechsteiner)FatherWWE Hall of Famer and one-half of the Steiner BrothersJayme McKenzieMotherFormer Oklahoma State softball player and longtime supporter of her sons' athletic careersScott SteinerUncleWWE Hall of Famer, former WCW World Heavyweight Champion and wrestling iconMaverick RechsteinerOlder brotherFormer football player and collegiate athleteHudson RechsteinerOlder brotherFormer high school football playerRick Steiner and Scott Steiner built one of wrestling's greatest family legaciesLong before Bron Breakker entered WWE, the Steiner name had already become famous around the world.

Because of his athletic background, and his natural ability, he became one of NXT’s top stars. A lot of people expected him to step in under the well-known Steiner name, but Bron decided to build his own identity as “Bron Breakker.” That choice seems to be working, because he’s already established himself as one of WWE’s more promising young talents, while also keeping the family’s wrestling tradition in his own way.
