AXS TV announced today that Mauro Ranallo will join “Inside MMA” as the new host alongside UFC Hall of Famer Bas Rutten. Ranallo, who currently works for WWE as the lead announcer for Smackdown, will join the show on March 25th. Ranallo is still working with WWE; his WWE deal allows him to do outside projects as long as they do not conflict with his WWE job. Ranallo had the following to say about the new job…
“In a year in which I landed a dream job with WWE, my dream to once again cover MMA and work with my broadcasting brother Bas Rutten has also come true. Filling the shoes of consummate pro Kenny Rice won’t be easy but I can’t wait to return to AXS TV for some strong style MMA coverage!”
