[Ryo Hazuki]

Mauro is just calling the pre-show. Still, better than nothing!

 

[sf2fanatic]

Lilian looking nice for Freckle..


Miss you friend

 

[BearPawB]

more like stealing the kids belt

oh lol. i havent watched wwe in a few months. So i wasn't exactly sure what the situation was

 

[Angry Grimace]

Lilian Garcia is turning 50 this year. What kind of secret drugs is she on?

 

[Gurrry]

Mauro is the best

Is he calling the show?!!

Ahh nvm just preshow

 

[ramoisdead]

Mauro only calling the pre-show? Bleh. I was actually going to tune if he was calling the whole thing.

 

[Laws00]

I love it when Lillian speaks Spanish. Mmm....

speak Spanish to me mommy

 

[Cheat Code]

Why does Kallisto get the Spanish intro despite being from Chicago and ADR actually being from Mexico?

 

[Heroman]

Is he calling the show?!!

Just the pre show

 

[mechashiva]

Hope leaving Lucha Underground was worth it ADR, back on the preshow.

I'm sure his bank account is much happier.

 

[Fox318]

the lucha chant is dumb

 

[Mahonay]

It's going to be such a step down losing Ranallo for the rest of the PPV

 

[Kyari]

Smackdown commentator.

He is quite good at his job.

I see this is the thread the new fans hide in.

More like the thread where no one watches Smackdown because its generally awful?

 

[hamchan]

I didn't realize a championship match was on the pre show.

 

[mreddie]

I'm sure his bank account is much happier.

Figured that's why he came back, so much for those racism charges.

 

[Farsi]

Mauro is just calling the pre-show. Still, better than nothing!

If he doesn't call one of the mania main events I'm gonna be upset. He brings more energy than all those other guys combined. JR like energy.

 

[Mahonay]

More like the thread where no one watches Smackdown because its generally awful?

It's been better lately, especially compared to RAW which has been extremely awful for the past year.

the lucha chant is dumb

It's booty.

 

[Heroman]

More like the thread where no one watches Smackdown because its generally awful?

Smackdown is actually better than Raw.

 

[KingBroly]

The difference between Mauro and JBL is staggering. JBL is such trash.

 

[Jetfire]

Who cloned Scott Hudson's voice and put it in this new guy's head

 

[RiccochetJ]

More like the thread where no one watches Smackdown because its generally awful?

They've stepped it up when they moved over to USA.

 

[Keyser Soze]

I like how Mauro just talks through the bullshit of everyone else around him

 

[Angry Grimace]

JBL just can't shut up during Mauro trying to call the match

too used to Cole not doing shit

 

[Master_Funk]

Lol Mauro doing what a great commentator does and setting up JBL for comments and JBL just can't handle that.

 

[Recall]

I like the match so far!

 

[Mahonay]

If he doesn't call one of the mania main events I'm gonna be upset. He brings more energy than all those other guys combined. JR like energy.

He doesn't just mindlessly drone on like JBL and Cole. He can call a match unlike those clowns.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Mauro has dropped more wrestling history in this match than Cole has his entire career.

 

[Kyari]

Yeah okay I'm with you guys, Mauro is really good at this and its making me want to watch Smackdown.

Its hilarious that JBL keeps trying to interrupt his actual commentary with trivial nonsense.

 

[Fox318]

THE ODDS MARIO

 

[Kusagari]

Smackdown is actually better than Raw.

Smackdown could be the best show on the planet and nobody would watch it.

WWE has conditioned fans to ignore it.

 

[Raw64life]

Never noticed Kalisto's horrific back acne before.

Doesn't really look like he's on anything though.

 

[Tagyhag]

All I'm saying is that Paul Heyman isn't saying how great Roman is and how much he respects him and then how much Dean's gonna get his ass kicked for no reason. And I don't think its because they want to hype Roman for WM.

Dean's winning, guys.

I understand where you're coming from. BUT...What if creative decided that Roman should win?

 

[sf2fanatic]

I like the match so far!

Ref ruined it. DQ already

 

[Angry Grimace]

Getting himself DQ'd because the US title means fucking nothing unless Cena has it.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Daniel Bryan made Kane look good... in 2014.

The other way around.

 

[ramoisdead]

Well this is a change of pace.

 

[shanafan]

LOL, a commercial break during the preshow TITLE match.

 

[Laws00]

Del no fuckings given Rio

 

[ghostmind]

JBL is out of his depth here.

 

[mreddie]

LOL ad with Wade

 

[Bluekaveli]

Quadruple H?

And a Quad reference?

 

[Violence Jack]

Have there always been commercials during a PPV pre-show?

 

[Fox318]

HHH must really hate his dad

Quad

 

[Heroman]

"HHHH" is a pretty good joke.

 

[RiccochetJ]

Ref ruined it. DQ already

Best 2 out of 3 falls and they're going to play it up that Del Rio got the advantage by using the chair and taking the first loss. Del Rio is going to get the second fall and then I have no idea what's going to happen for the third.

 

[shwimpy]

Have there always been commercials during a PPV pre-show?

Yes.

 

[mreddie]

Have there always been commercials during a PPV pre-show?

Since 2014

 

[Oldest_Ancient]

Have there always been commercials during a PPV pre-show?

Yeah, they air it on youtube(?) so it's a last chance to get fans to sign up before the show.

 

[Carnby]

Figured that's why he came back, so much for those racism charges.

They fired they guy ADR slapped. And ADR came back with a huge raise. I see no problem with how it turned out.

 

[Recall]

I'm not in the mood to be super cynical, I'm fine to just enjoy what I'm presented with.

I like the energy presented here.
