Adam Pearce Thanks Fans For Support In Roman Reigns Storyline

By Marc Middleton

WWE Producer Adam Pearce took to Twitter to thank fans for supporting the idea of his match with WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns at the Royal Rumble.

WWE recently ran a storyline where Reigns forced Pearce into being his challenger at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view on January 31. Pearce ended up swerving Reigns on Friday's SmackDown, and now Reigns will defend against Kevin Owens in a Last Man Standing match at the pay-per-view. Pearce took to Twitter last night and thanked fans for their support.

"A note of #gratitude to those that supported the idea of seeing me face Roman Reigns at Royal Rumble. Wrestling fans have amazed me for 25+ years and now is no different. That said, some things just aren't meant to be, and "not medically cleared" is a status I wish on no one. [folded hands emoji]," Pearce wrote.

Pearce has not wrestled since 2004, last competing for ROH. He is a former five-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion. Pearce started working behind-the-scenes with WWE in 2013, but signed on full-time in the spring of 2015.
