Adam Pearce explains the role of WWE RAW General Manager
Adam Pearce recently detailed his role in the promotion. The veteran was officially made RAW General Manager in October 2023.
Speaking on the INSIGHT podcast with Chris Van Vliet, Adam Pearce explained what he does as the General Manager of the red brand. The 46-year-old stated that the purpose of the GM was to explain to the fans what was happening in the storylines or to send a character in a new direction on WWE television.
"But the General Manager or the WWE Official that I played for years before that, that's an informational conduit to what you just said, to make sure that everybody understands the context to what is happening with these larger-than-life characters that are on their screens every Monday and every Friday. And sometimes they're the focus of the direction of the story, [and] sometimes the GM is there to change the direction of the story but the story is always about the superstar," said Adam Pearce.
