Posted August 22, 20241 yr comment_6023629 Sorry for the multiple posts!!! This apostrophe glitch has been going on forever. It's embarrassing at this point. Fix it already! _____ Original Post: Maple Leaf Pro is Scott D'Amore's new promotion - and it now has the voice of a generation, Mauro Ranallo, calling the action. https://www.f4wonline.com/news/indies/mauro-ranallo-returning-to-commentary-for-scott-damores-new-promotion/ MAMMA MIA!
August 29, 20241 yr Author comment_6023908 Bumping this because I just added a sweet-ass image to the OP.
September 10, 20241 yr comment_6024295 And here’s a picture of all the Pro Wrestling fans who are really excited about this news…
September 11, 20241 yr comment_6024315 Its great to see him back in wrestling, and I am very excited to see him with Don Callis. Don was my fave heel commentator in recent years, with his Impact and NJPW runs (plus his AEW guest spots). I have always been a big Mauro Ranallo fan so those two together feels like a bit of a dream team. Very excited overall for MLP.

November 27, 2024Nov 27 comment_6026051 Actually, MLP delivered two absolutely awesome main events (much, much better than the Takeshita match against Ricochet at Full gear). The cards had its ups and downs (TAFKA Jinder Mahal was *GODAWFUL*, seriously I don't think I've seen someone so bad in an eternity), but mostly pretty entertaining. The mix of talents from everywhere surely added a lot. Sadly this was the last time to see El-Phantasmo before he announced he had cancer. Hopefully things turn out good for the guy. The elephant in the room here is of course Mauro's announcing. It's funny. The first night, I thought, "Well, he really isn't as loud or annoying as I remembered him to be", and the good things about his game still wer every much in effect. And then the second night, after a few match, I was like "Damn, he's beginning to annoy the hell out of me".
November 27, 2024Nov 27 comment_6026052 I don't know anything about this card, but he was certainly annoying all night on that Mike Tyeon fight a few weeks ago.
November 28, 2024Nov 28 Author comment_6026078 I haven't been on PWO much lately, but I had to step in to speak out against this Mauro slander!
November 28, 2024Nov 28 comment_6026084 I felt Mauro actually did a good job reminding folks that this was a 58 year old in there. He was the voice of reason in the booth.

I wonder if the MLP shows in 2025, whatever they will be, will keep on bringing him. He and Callis together sure brought credibility and professionalism to the booth. Callis seemingly can work with *anyone* and make it work.
May 3May 3 comment_6029705 Skipped the last previous two shows (although they're on Youtube now), but the next one doesn't look half bad on paper. Serena Deeb vs Miyu Yamashita, Kylie Rae vs Gisele Shaw (although Rae is a WWEID, there's no way Gisele doesn't win there), Micheal Oku vs Speedball vs Gabe Kidd. Well, of course Mauro is still announcing, so there's that, but hey, Callis is there too.

May 3May 3 comment_6029707 Damn, the title of this thread is so cursed... But yeah, the MLP project still looks interesting. If anyone Canadian was released by WWE, you can sure D'Amore will have a try at them.
May 4May 4 comment_6029723 Watched the first night of Mayhem since why not. All jokes aside, Mauro is fucking unbearable. Making a useless, totally unrelated reference every two minutes (he's what we call in French a prouveur, yeah, we get the fucking point, you have a whole lot of REFERENCES) and worst of all, *interrupting his co-host all the time* I swear Veda Scott has not been able to finish two sentences in a row. Add to that the constant screaming. Jeez. Apart from this, some good stuff (mostly thanks to the external talent from AEW, NJPW and NOAH), but holy shit, a TAFKA Baron Corbin (as Mauro actually called him several times) match against Bram from the NWA was one hell of a lame-ass main event (not *bad* per say, but boring and basic, with a really lame finish). Don't see the point of working with the cursed Corgan's NWA (for fuck's sake, Bram). And Bishop Dyer may be a bit better than Baron Corbin as I remembered him for years ago, but I don't need to see another match of him, ever. Basically I wish AEW would sign Gisele Shaw, really (but I thought the same thing already when she was in IMPACT).
