Bron Breakker & Sheamus both eliminated from WWE Speed tournament

After going to a time-limit draw, Bron Breakker and Sheamus have both been eliminated from the ongoing WWE Speed number one contender’s tournament.

The Breakker vs. Sheamus match that aired on Speed today went the full three minutes without a winner being decided. As time was winding down, Breakker went for a spear but got cut off by a knee strike from Sheamus. Both competitors fell to the mat as the last 10 seconds ran off the clock. Speed tournament matches have a rule where both wrestlers are eliminated if a time-limit draw occurs.

A post-match angle saw Breakker and Sheamus trade strikes until officials arrived to break up their brawl. Corey Graves stressed on commentary that Breakker and Sheamus still have unfinished business.

This means that Dragon Lee vs. Akira Tozawa on Speed next Wednesday (November 13) will determine the next challenger for Andrade’s WWE Speed Championship. Andrade has held the title since June with successful defenses against Xavier Woods, Baron Corbin, and Pete Dunne.

Breakker — who currently holds the Intercontinental title — had the chance to become a double champion if he was able to win this tournament and go on to defeat Andrade.
