WWE Makes Fun of the Mauro Ranallo Situation and JBL Causes Another Incident

During yesterday’s Bring It To The Table episode on the WWE Network, the WWE made light of the Mauro Ranallo situation. When talking about recent negative comments involving Corey Graves and Peter Rosenberg, the camera suddenly cut to JBL who had a smiling grin on his face implying his own recent issues before changing the topic.

Later in the show, JBL made a random statement about how he would rather be captured by ISIS than ever hang out with Sami Zayn. While the segment was meant to mimic Pardon The Interruption’s commercial cut-in segments, JBL’s comments had no context with stuff talked earlier in the show unlike how PTI handles those segments.
