Adam Pearce makes major announcement ahead of WWE RAW
WWE RAW General Manager Adam Pearce has made a major announcement ahead of tonight's edition of the red brand at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia.
Tonight's edition of RAW will be the first show following WrestleMania XL. Several new champions were crowned at the premium live event, including Cody Rhodes. The American Nightmare defeated Roman Reigns last night in the main event to end The Tribal Chief's historic title reign.
Ahead of tonight's show, the company shared a video on social media featuring the RAW GM. Adam Pearce announced that the first hour of tonight's edition of RAW will be commercial-free.
"What an incredible weekend it has been for me, for you, the WWE Universe, and for everybody that is going to tune in tonight for Monday Night RAW. Because we are less than a day removed from the biggest WrestleMania of all time. History made, and stories finished. Tonight at the Wells Fargo, it is the RAW after WrestleMania. Which means what? anything and everything can happen. You never know who is going to show up. And I'm not giving any spoiler alerts, other than this. The first hour of Monday Night RAW is commercial free. I can promise you this, you are not going to want to miss it. That is official," said Pearce.
