Adam Pearce Praises Eric André for WWE Raw Segment With Jacob Fatu

During last Monday’s WWE Raw, The Bloodline’s Jacob Fatu destroyed actor and comedian Eric Andre when Andre touched the Ula Fala. During a recent appearance by Chicago History’s DIBS, Raw General Manager Adam Pearce praised Andre for his work in the segment and putting his trust into Jacob Fatu.

Adam Pearce said on the segment, “So he’s there, he’s in the front row, people are recognizing him, but they’re not expecting Jacob Fatu to yank him over the guardrail and manhandle him, and that is exactly what Jacob did. All kudos to Eric André. Again, it goes back to the trust that I was talking about earlier.” He continued, “He put 100 percent of his trust into Jacob Fatu to not maim him and cripple him, but to make it look like that’s exactly what happened, and to kind of be in the periphery and, as you said, screaming my head off. I’m always losing my mind on Mondays.”

Eric André is also set to star opposite former WWE Champion John Cena in the new movie, Little Brother, which arrives on Netflix on June 26. You can view a clip of Adam Pearce speaking about Eric André appearing on WWE Raw below:
