Mauro Ranallo! Plus, Previews of NXT Takeover and Summerslam




E&C’s Pod of Awesomeness show

Summary: What's up, Hosers?! Welcome to another edition of E&C's Pod of Awesomeness. This week, the Strappers caught up with a fellow Canadian, and a man whose passion for the wrestling business is both immense and contagious, NXT announcer Mauro Ranallo. Mauro talked through some of the matches we'll be seeing this weekend at Takeover and Summerslam, before explaining why, in the age of social media and short attention spans, the Gargano-Ciampa feud is so special. The trio also covered Ranallo's lengthy resume, which includes time as the voice of Pride, Bellator, Showtime Boxing, and WWE's Smackdown. It was a great chat. Plus, E&C remembered their own Summerslam experiences and paid tribute to Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, who we lost earlier this week. Rest in Power, Anvil.
