Adam Pearce reacts after 54-year-old veteran quietly confirms the end of his WWE RAW run

WWE’s Adam Pearce recently sent a message for a 54-year-old veteran. The latter quietly bid goodbye to Monday Night RAW earlier this week.

The December 30, 2024, edition of RAW, the final episode on the USA Network, marked the end of Joe Tessitore’s time as commentator of the flagship show.

Subsequently, Wade Barrett also ended his RAW commentary run. Both men will be replaced by Michael Cole and Pat McAfee when the red brand moves to Netflix on January 6, 2025.

RAW General Manager Adam Pearce took to his Instagram handle to express his gratitude to Joe Tessitore with two selfies.

“Pocket squares crisp and straight without debate. Grateful for you, brother. 🙏,” Pearce wrote on the caption.

Check out his post below:

Barrett and Tessitore will be involved with Monday Night RAW in some form but behind the scenes. The two men will join former WWE Champion Big E during the post-show for RAW’s Netflix premiere.

What does Triple H have in store for WWE RAW on Netflix premiere?

Triple H has lined up as many as four blockbuster matches for the upcoming episode of RAW on Netflix premiere.

Roman Reigns will face Solo Sikoa in a Tribal Combat Match, with the Ula Fala necklace on the line.

In another Bloodline-related match, Jey Uso will lock horns with Drew McIntyre, who mysteriously took out the YEET Master upon his return.

Elsewhere on the show, Liv Morgan will defend her Women’s World Championship against Rhea Ripley. The match was initially set to be contested under Last Woman’s Standing rules, but as of this writing, the stipulation is seemingly no longer in place.

Other than that, the Final Testament and the Wyatt Sicks are advertised for a “final showdown.”

Seth Rollins and CM Punk will headline the show as the two men clash for the first time in over a decade.
