JBL is a bully, but Mauro is being a whiny bitch and this wouldn't be nearly the issue if JBL were the IWC darling and Mauro wasn't.
I wasn't joking chief. |

Like imagine of all the shitty, bullying things JBL has done and it's the time he called a commentator a mark that got him fired. I mean if that's all it was the punishment doesn't fit the crime, but what goes around comes around. Though tbh he won't be hurting if he gets fired. Vince won't learn anything, JBL won't learn anything and he'll just have some time off before he finds his next project. He's also a millionaire, so what does it matter. |

I remember Mauro quitting the Score Wrestling show because he couldn't handle the criticism . He threw a tantrum and quit over people giving him shit about a John Cena comment
He was sooooo beyond obnoxious. Typical IWC douchebag where he couldn't understand a different way of thinking. Last edited by Bad News Gertner; 04-11-2017 at 12:39 AM. |

realistically JBL is probably just upset that Mauro is a way better commentator than him.
And he's also upset that his title reign is criminally over rated because he was a boring, fat, slob. |

Nash gets internet hate? Where? We have a month, AN ENTIRE FUCKING MONTH, devoted to him via his own thread.
Mauro may be mentally fragile. But people act like this is something he chooses to be. Everyone is wired differently. I dealt with bullying as a kid, and never let it bother me. But I'm not everyone. People will handle things differently. It doesn't mean JBL isn't a bully, and it doesn't mean that he surprisingly picks on guys who are smaller than him or who are green to the business. He doesn't pick on Lesnar because he knew Lesnar wouldn't take it, whether he was a rookie or not. Maybe Roberts, Mauro etc ate not as mentally tough as others. Doesn't excuse the actions and behavior directed towards them nor does it mean they should be ran out of the business. Sa performer, JBL was always a better talker than anything else. I found his title run boring as he was literally a 1 year placeholder for the overall better Cena. But they had a depleted roster and no real heels, so JBL found himself with a rocket push. They needed and got an effective heel out if him to hand the reigns to Cena. I found him to be pretty meh after his initial title run, and thought his commentary in his first run was great. Second run, not so much. |

Mauro brought a big fight feel to commentary that WWE has been needing since JR left.

Fan has it right. Mauro came off very genuine in what he was calling. Miles ahead of Cole and pretty much everybody outside of JR.

Styles commentary is like the rest of ECW: it doesn't hold up too well. He became a gimmick as time wore on and I loved ECW. Lol I have every Hardcore TV from 97 to 2001 saved. Styles between 94-98 is pretty good.

I thought I remember people, the internet dweebs included, that were excited for JBL as an announcer. He still gets warm receptions when introduced at live events. You say his title reign was criminally underrated, which is exactly the type of thing that would draw the IWC to JBL in the first place.

Joey Styles is a tremendous douche
Enjoyed him as a commentator though even through his WWE run. Haven't re-watched ECW or that era of WWE in a while though, kinda want to now. |

I have watched One Night Stand 2005 a ton and Styles' quote about wishing Mike Awesome would've committed suicide is juuuuuuust a tad bit cringey

JBL is a piece of shit and Mauro is a pussy. Fire both of them and hire Mike Adamle. Now that Jeff Harvey is back in the WWE it just makes sense.

Mauro has been diagnosed with mental health problems, suggusting he should just toughen up is ignorant. These are real health problems and having a coworker bully you doesn't help anything. There is a difference between bullying and ribbing, all he stories about JBL indicate that he doesn't know the difference.

Why would JBL get the boot because Mauro stopped coming to work after JBL lightly picked on him? I get he has a mental health problem, but come on, how is he in the right on this? Site his mental health problem as the reason he is gone, and not "JBL set his mental health problems off." Mauro comes off as a giant douche for that.

Just another JBL bullying incident. Piles on to the shitpile. Might be too much shit on the pile or it might stink more now that it is being exposed.
