WWE has ‘a ton to address’ on SmackDown now that Nick Aldis is out as GM again

WWE placed SmackDown GM Nick Aldis on administrative leave at the end of June after he put his hands on GUNTHER at Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia. Things returned to normal at the beginning of last week’s (July 10) episode of SmackDown when Aldis announced he was officially reinstated. His first order of business back in the GM seat was to book WWE Champion CM Punk vs. Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam. By the end of the night, Aldis was beaten and destroyed by GUNTHER for excluding him from that WWE title match. With all of that in mind, Raw GM Adam Pearce just posted this video a short while ago explaining that because of what happened last week, he is once again the acting General Manager of SmackDown for tomorrow night’s (July 17) episode in Albany, New York. In his “mini-preview” of SmackDown, Pearce simply said there is “a ton to address, and I will do just that.” Your OFFICIAL #SmackDown Mini-Preview for TOMORROW NIGHT in Albany! 📺: 8e/5p LIVE on @usanetwork around the world on @
