Dave Meltzer indicated in the latest issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that ultimately it was not John Layfield’s actions that caused Mauro Ranallo to leave WWE earlier this year but rather the culture that has been headed by Vince McMahon.
The belief is that JBL’s part was the final straw for Mauro. However, it’s worth mentioning that some of the remarks that made Mauro upset were actually fed to JBL during the broadcasts and not entirely his doing.
Regarding Mauro’s terms to return to the company, he will work with Michael Cole and Triple H instead of having to deal with Vince McMahon.
