On the October 13 episode of WWE SmackDown, Adam Pearce was named the General Manager of Raw, and Nick Aldis was revealed as the General Manager of WWE SmackDown. In addition to his on-screen role, Pearce works behind the scenes as a producer.

Speaking on My World with Jeff Jarrett, the WWE Hall of Famer commented on Pearce and praised his work ethic. The six-time NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion stated that the business needs more people like Pearce.

“What was cool for me, I don’t know history, I was obviously in the TNA bubble. I didn’t know Adam Pearce booked a Ring of Honor. I had no idea. So it went from Gabe [Sapolsky] to Adam, to Delirious… Adam is a guy…man, hard work pays off. Nose to the grindstone. Keeping on keeping on. He’s engaged, he’s a producer. I’m happy for that guy, he works hard. We need more Adam Pearces. It’s a business, we need more of those folks out there,” Jeff Jarrett said.

During the podcast, Jarrett also stated that he had surgery to have a molar removed. Click here to see what he had to say.
