WWE Raw General Manager Adam Pearce may have dropped an unexpected nugget that has wrestling fans buzzing ahead of this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw.
Pearce took to social media to promote the upcoming show, which doubles as Raw’s one-year anniversary on Netflix, and did so in a casual video filmed while walking his dog. While running down the card, Pearce used a phrase that instantly caught the attention of longtime fans: “break down the walls.”
The line, of course, is famously associated with Chris Jericho, and its use immediately sparked speculation online about whether the former multi-time world champion could be on WWE’s radar. Jericho has been absent from AEW television for months, with reports suggesting he’s nearing the end of his current deal, leaving plenty of room for rumors to swirl.
In the video, Pearce highlighted several major talking points for the night, including Liv Morgan’s first singles match in six months as she takes on Lyra Valkyria. He also emphasized that Raw will feature three championship bouts, with particular focus on the Women’s Tag Team Championship clash. Iyo Sky and Rhea Ripley are set to challenge the Kabuki Warriors in what Pearce described as a high-stakes showdown for the gold.
Whether Pearce’s wording was a playful coincidence or a subtle tease remains to be seen. WWE has a long history of leaning into fan speculation, and even a small reference is enough to set the internet alight — especially when it involves a name as big as Jericho’s.
What is confirmed is that the first Raw of 2026 will take place at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, and WWE is clearly positioning the show as a major milestone episode. Between the stacked card, championship implications, and intriguing choice of words from Raw’s on-screen authority figure, Monday night is shaping up to be one worth watching.
