Nick Aldis, General Manager of WWE SmackDown brand, appeared on this week’s WWE RAW episode.

As a sign of kindness, Pearce extended an invitation to Aldis, asking him to stay for the remainder of the evening and gain some insights into how the Raw episode is managed. Nick Aldis also expressed that there should be a healthy sense of competition between RAW and SmackDown.

Later in the episode, Pearce noticed Aldis conversing with Monday Night Raw Superstars Kayden Carter and Katana Chance. While Aldis insisted it was merely a friendly chat, he promptly chose to leave the venue to make things easier for Adam Pearce.

There are speculations that we might witness a RAW vs SmackDown matchup at the upcoming Survivor Series 2023 PLE. The battle between the brands have been the format for the past few years at Survivor Series. However, that was changed to War Games format last year. It remains to be seen if the speculations of brand war at this year’s event are correct.
