Mauro Ranallo Update
WWE announcer Mauro Ranallo missed WWE Smackdown Live once again tonight, and his WrestleMana 33 status is currently up in the air. As noted, Mauro’s friend and podcast co-host Bas Rutten recently commented on Mauro’s status with the following.
“Yeah, he’s doing okay. As everybody knows, he’s very vocal about it but Mauro is bi-polar and sometimes, a few times a year, things are going too fast and he needs to just simply slow down. But he’s doing good and I talked to him… he’s sending me funny video clips, he just sent me something… It’s all in good spirits, I think he will be back to normal very soon.”
