WWE Official Adam Pearce Reacts To The News Of Brock Lesnar’s Suspension Being Lifted


Adam Pearce has shared his thoughts on Brock Lesnar’s indefinite suspension being lifted.

At WWE Crown Jewel on October 21st, Brock Lesnar challenged Roman Reigns for the Universal Title but lost the match after The Usos got involved and Roman Reigns hit him over the head with the belt.

The next night on SmackDown, Brock confronted Reigns and beat him up all around the ringside area. When people came to help, Brock took no prisoners, attacking Superstars, referees, and crew members. After the situation calmed, Adam Pearce announced that Brock was being suspended indefinitely for his actions. Brock didn’t take the news well, grabbing Pearce and hitting him with two F5’s.

A couple of weeks later, Pearce revealed that Brock was also being fined $1 million.

During the November 26 edition of SmackDown, Kayla Braxton revealed that Brock’s suspension was being lifted and that he would be on SmackDown next week. She caught up with Adam Pearce on the latest edition of Talking Smack and got his thoughts on the situation. Here is what he had to say:

“Did you say it was an honor? In the same sentence, you referred to me as a WWE Official and then ask me how it is I feel about your honor, your announcement. Brock’s coming back next week, well, I’ll just be honest with you. As a WWE Official, it would have been nice to have been clued into something that big. Now, I’m not going to argue with you or lie or denigrate Brock Lesnar in any way, he’s one of the biggest stars in our industry. We all are aware of that. By the same token, Kayla, what he did was monumental, in a completely negative way. He put his hands on me, he put his hands on a cameraman. He put everybody at risk. So you ask me now, he’s coming back next week and how do I react to that? How do I react that that? How do I feel about that? How would you feel about that? You blindsided me out there, and I’m not blaming you, don’t get me wrong, but if you’re going to look me in the eyes and ask me how I feel about it, I think it sucks! I think it sucks. So, I’m going to have to walk these halls and I’m going to have to stare Brock Lesnar in the eye and he’s going to look at me and know that I took a big chunk out of his wallet and sent him home. Now he’s back and you’re asking me how I feel about that. I’m going to go and figure out how I feel about that. Is that okay with you? Thank you for your time.”
