Russo adds that everyone is replaceable in WWE, especially a lowly announcer. Nobody is bigger than WWE, and if Graves wasn’t on the show next week, WWE wouldn’t even miss a beat. He says that you’d have to be out of your mind if you think Graves is a better commentator than Mauro Ranallo, noting that Graves is a hack compared to Ranallo.
He thinks the only reason Ranallo’s on NXT and not the main roster shows is because he struggles with depression, and he definitely doesn’t want to deal with the backstage politics and the throat cutting that comes with a career in WWE.
At another point last week Satin tweeted out, admitting that people in the wrestling business lie to him all the time. Russo says that people like to Satin because he’s a scumbag, it’s that simple. He adds that Satin is a very unlikeable guy, and he hopes that one day Satin can look at himself in the mirror, see the dirtbag that he is, and make a change.
Lane points out that Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez are going to be doing live shows soon, and tickets for VIP meet and greets are $70 bucks. He adds that the cheapest tickets are $50 bucks. Russo can’t people are going to pay prices like that to hear those two guys talk. He points out that he can easily see a great band he loves for $30, but Meltzer demands $70.
