Mauro Ranallo Documentary In The Works?

Earlier today it was reported by Rajah.com that both WWE and Showtime are collaborating in producing a documentary on Showtime and NXT ringside play-by-play announcer Mauro Ranallo.

“WWE and Showtime are collaborating on an upcoming documentary on Mauro Ranallo, focusing on his battles with mental health.”

Before he worked for WWE, initially as part of the SmackDown Live announce team, Ranallo had a very successful career calling boxing, for Showtime, and MMA for the likes of Bellator.

In 2015, Ranallo previously worked on the WWE SmackDown announce team before he ‘disappeared’ following rumors of bullying at the hands of his broadcast colleague John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield (JBL).
