Just watched this video on YouTube that WWE uploaded of Mauro Ranallo on commentary during NXT TakeOver: New Orleans and man, it’s great to see this level of passion and enthusiasm by a commentator still around in wrestling today!

His level of excitement reminds me of Will Ferrell.

He should definitely tone down some of the awkward, obscure pop culture references, but, aside from that, his passion is really something to be admired. It's easy for the fan to become invested when he is so clearly invested himself. It's something Michael Cole has never been able to replicate with any success at all, and something JR lost quite a long time ago.

He makes the matches so much more fun. I haven’t heard someone like him since Jim Ross back in the late 80’s

Cool video that. Percy Watson’s reactions are funny to watch, too. He seems in awe of the things that are going down, particularly during the Ladder Match.

He's the best commentator since JR in the 80s-2000s, easily. SmackDown, coincidentally or not, started their tailspin once Mauro was removed from commentary. He is the best announcer in wrestling.

That Infinity War reference was the best commentary line of Wrestlemania 34 weekend

I like seeing/hearing an announcer who's passion is real and it shows through.

Great commentator. Its too bad he's got paper thin skin. Could have been around calling classics for a long time on the main roster and then I wouldn't have to hear those noises coming out of that hole in Coles face.

I guess I am gonna be in the small percentage (if there is even anyone else but me) that says I do not like his commentary.
I honestly rather hear Michael Cole or Tom Phillips before Mauro Ranallo.
That's just my opinion though and I get why people would like Mauro, everyone has their favourites, but Mauro isn't top on my list. Not saying he is bad, just I don't think he is as great as people say he is.

Mauro was a major reason I started watching Smackdown again at the time.I looked forward to his commentary every week. He's like Dick Vitale and Jim Ross got spliced somehow.
