Adam Pearce makes argument for RAW being the greatest WWE show; throws shade at SmackDown
Adam Pearce delivered a message ahead of tonight's edition of WWE RAW in Evansville, Indiana. The RAW General Manager also took a shot at SmackDown as well.
Ahead of tonight's show, WWE shared a video featuring Adam Pearce. The veteran claimed the red brand was chaotic because he wanted it to be that way. Pearce noted that he brought the most "sadistic warriors" to WWE RAW to deliver an exciting message to fans.
"Everybody says Monday Night RAW is chaotic, it needs to be controlled more. It needs to be calmed down. Oh my God, who is going to rein everybody in? Nobody. Monday Night RAW is chaotic because I drafted it to be. I brought the most sadistic warriors in professional wrestling and sports entertainment together on Monday nights for one reason, and that is to deliver to you the most exciting program on worldwide television!" said Adam Pearce.

Pearce then took a shot at SmackDown and noted that RAW was the company's flagship show.
"And I defy you to find another one out there. What are you going to watch, SmackDown? I don't think so. It's the red brand. It's the flagship. It's chaotic, and it's Monday Night RAW," said Pearce. [From 00:21 - 00:36]

Former WWE writer suggests interesting reason Wyatt Sicks missed last week's RAW
Wrestling veteran Vince Russo recently suggested that the promotion may already be out of ideas for The Wyatt Sicks on the red brand.
The Wyatt Sicks arrived on RAW in June but did not make an appearance during last week's show. Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW show, Russo stated that the promotion might not know what to do with the faction anymore.
"Bro, if they did [have a promo], I missed it. I did not see any Groovie Goolies stuff tonight. I don't think we saw it last week, either. They already don't know what to do with them. That's why." [From 25:50 onwards]

CM Punk and Drew McIntyre are both scheduled to appear on tonight's show ahead of their Hell in a Cell match this weekend at Bad Blood. It will be interesting to see if WWE has any surprises planned for tonight's edition of WWE RAW.
