WWE official Sonya Deville had some harsh words for her colleague Adam Pearce after she attacked Bianca Belair on RAW.
Deville congratulated Belair after the latter's victory against Zelina on this week's RAW. The official presented Bianca with an open contract to prove that she was a fighting champion. Sonya would later go on to attack the RAW Women's Champion and announce herself as the next contender for the title.
WWE Correspondent Sarah Schreiber caught up with the WWE official on RAW Talk to get her thoughts on the attack. Deville mentioned that she was not abusing her powers. The 28-year-old star made it clear that Adam Pearce only condemned her actions because he was jealous of her.
Here's what Deville had to say:
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
"How can it be an abuse of power if I am the power? Explain that to me. Because Adam said so? Because he's jealous that I'm in my prime and he's not. Come on, read between the lines. You're smarter than that. To reiterate, how could it affect my job if I'm in charge? Just think before you speak sometimes, okay?" (From 2:27 - 2:52)
