Some WWE fans got upset at RAW general manager Adam Pearce for his announcement ahead of tonight's Day 1.
Pearce uploaded a video of himself making a special announcement hours before the New Year's celebration kicked in. He thanked all of his followers for the support he received during an amazing 2023.
The video was cut short, and fans had to click the link to his YouTube account for the full announcement. For those wondering, Pearce recited the lyrics to Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up.
