Mauro Ranallo In Talks For Wrestling Return

One of the very best in the game, Mauro Ranallo is in talks for a pro wrestling return.

As per Fightful Select, Ranallo has had discussions with Court Bauer's Major League Wrestling about potentially joining the company, with Mauro and Bauer having previously worked together for Strikeforce.

Mauro Ranallo's last notable appearance in the wrestling world saw him call the main event of IMPACT Rebellion 2021, where IMPACT World Champion Rich Swann faced off with AEW World Champion Kenny Omega in a Title vs. Title match; a match won by the Best Bout Machine. Prior to that, Mauro was with WWE from 2015 to 2020, where he initially served as the Voice of SmackDown before ending that stint calling the action in NXT. Unfortunately, that WWE run was mired with allegations of bullying towards Mauro from John Bradshaw Layfield, with Ranallo having been open and candid about his battles with depression.

Away from WWE, Mauro Ranallo has covered New Japan Pro-Wrestling, Stampede Wrestling, and received plentiful praise for his work in combat sports for the likes of Pride, Bellator, Strikeforce, and Showtime's boxing and kickboxing coverage.
