He has to keep the wrestlers in order so that things don\u2019t get out of hand. His job has gotten easier since 2023, when Nick Aldis was named General Manager of Friday Night SmackDown. Even though he only presides over Monday Night Raw, things still get out of hand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He comes out whenever a wrestler is brutally attacking someone or causing damage. His presence is noticeable through his yelling, which helps to defuse the situation. The latest example was stopping Rusev\u2019s attack on Otis after his match on the May 5, 2025 episode of Raw.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adam Pearce is doing a good job as the Raw General Manager. However, if something extremely bad happens, will it be too much for him to handle, or will he take serious action?<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Adam Pearce Could Walk Away<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you look at all the confrontations that he\u2019s had with various wrestlers, you can conclude one obvious thing about Adam Pearce. He yells and gets angry during those moments, but that shows how important the job is to him. The suspensions and fines demonstrate how tough he is on talent. But his presence is only necessary when things need to be stopped.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He is exasperated from coming out nearly every week to prevent someone from getting hurt. If things start to get physical, he has a legitimate case to walk away.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, if Bronson Reed hits him with a tsunami, he could be out for months and feel like the job isn\u2019t worth it anymore. Things haven\u2019t escalated to that point in a while. But if Adam Pearce feels like he is in danger, he could understandably resign as Raw General Manager.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>His Background as a Wrestler Could Help Him<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before signing with WWE, Adam Pearce had five separate runs as the NWA World Champion for 1078 days and had a good run in Ring of Honor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like Nick Aldis, he is very experienced in the ring and has a decorated career. Two guys who know what it\u2019s like in the ring presiding over the WWE roster make sense. But a lot of fans are holding out hope that they will wrestle one last time. It\u2019ll only happen if the story calls for it, though, and Aldis isn\u2019t as hands-on as he is.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s why, if things go horribly wrong, it\u2019ll make sense for him to face the person responsible in the ring. If WWE trusts Pat McAfee enough to face Gunther, then they\u2019ll definitely feel the same for him. Adam Pearce can dish out his worst punishment by coming out of retirement and wrestling one last match.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Things Haven\u2019t Gotten to That Point Yet<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There have certainly been many times when Adam Pearce has been <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=s8w_z-ZkIhE\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">close to losing it<\/a>. However, he hasn\u2019t gone that far yet. Even though the job may be stressful, there has been no complaining or threatening to quit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All things considered, he has been a good General Manager for Monday Night Raw. But at some point, something is bound to set him off. Whether he gets seriously hurt or a wrestler does something unforgivable to another wrestler, that will be the moment where he is seriously tested.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If fines and suspensions aren\u2019t enough, what will he do in order to set things right? Will he choose to walk away, or will he lace up his boots one last time? Adam Pearce hasn\u2019t been faced with that decision, but if it comes to that, it\u2019ll be interesting to see what he\u2019ll choose to do in that situation.<\/p>\n<p><b>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\"><i>Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/i><\/a><i> for more on Adam Pearce and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
