Mauro Ranallo to debut for IMPACT Wrestling at Rebellion 2021
Former WWE play-by-play commentator Mauro Ranallo is making his way to IMPACT Wrestling for the upcoming pay-per-view Rebellion 2021 on April 25.
Ranallo will be calling the main event match between IMPACT Wrestling Champion Rich Swann and AEW Champion Kenny Omega, the winner of which will walk out as the double champion.
After serving as a commentator for WWE SmackDown from 2015-2017, Ranallo made his way to NXT. During his time in the Black and Gold promotion, Ranallo became a favorite of many due to his gifted style of commentating, which was starkly different from the robotic commentary fans typically hear in WWE.
After being the voice of NXT for three years, Ranallo departed the company in August 2020 and has since then worked as a broadcaster for Bellator MMA.
Fans have dearly missed Mauro Ranallo and his return to the wrestling world is sure to bring a lot of buzz to the upcoming event.
The fact that IMPACT Wrestling is going all out by promoting the match indicates that fans might witness a massive shift in the promotion's direction at the upcoming pay-per-view.
