Mauro Ranallo deactivates Twitter after criticism from Corey Graves
Already posted in the Survivor Series thread but might as well post as a thread...
Mauro deactivated or deleted his Twitter account after Graves posted this...
He wasn't at Survivor Series and Michael Cole said it was because he "blew out his voice" at TakeOver and he'll be back on NXT on Wednesday |

Kinda wonder if company man Graves was used by "higher ups" at WWE to "send Mauro a message"
Isn't that what was revealed they were doing last time when JBL bashed him on that WWE Network show, which led to him leaving the SmackDown team...? Or maybe I'm mixing it up with when Graves was used to "send a message" to Enzo Amore on that same show |

Mauro sucked at Takeover, but deactivating Twitter is probably the right move for him. Social media in general is a cesspool for anyone with mental health issues.

Mauro Pussi is what my dad would have called him if his tongue still worked and he wasn't dead.
Dad was great at intelligent nicknames. |

Read a lot of decent responses on SquaredCircle. Maybe Mauro was already dealing with something and Corey’s comment was the last straw. Corey’s tweets essentially gave toxic folks a chance to voice there less than stellar opinions on the man. Mauro could’ve brushed away the critique, considering Graves isn’t any better when it comes to talking over Young and Saxton.

Mauro deactivated his account after his coworker Graves publicly shit on him, and Mauro's friend Frank Shamrock said he wanted to punch Graves in the mouth... How is it a lie...

Graves didn't "shit" on him, Mauro overreacted AGAIN, and Frank Shamrock isn't just his friend, he's his manager/agent. It's amazing. Mauro "please don't cyber bully me" Ranallo's manager basically trying to cyber bully Corey. Mauro should be fired and Frank Shamrock should have the taste slapped out of his mouth.

smh @ everyone acting like they wouldn't be pissed or feel bad if they were a commentator (or really at any job) and your "colleague" Corey Graves tweeted that shit about you to all of his followers
Especially considering the possibility that WWE might be using Graves to "send Mauro a message," or if not that, Graves might have some influence that could hurt Mauro's career since he seems to dislike how he does his job. That would give any normal person "anxiety" at least |

Its unprofessional to shoot on people on twitter. Its pathetic to cry about it. Both can be true.

I’d love to know how Graves thought this was gonna go when he tweeted that. Yes Mauro is easily triggered, but it’s also well known that he’s easily triggered. So you’re basically punching down on a sympathetic figure who is pretty universally liked in the wrestling and MMA communities. Seems like a bad idea from the start.

Of course Dave Meltzer tried to put his own spin on it because he's gotta keep his name out there.
Graves barely even went at Mauro anyways, surely nowhere near what other people have said. To think Corey's opinion is that important to Mauro that the slightest criticism from Graves would cause a full scale meltdown where he would no show survivor series is quite the stretch. |

According to PWI, it wasn't just Graves tweet that caused Mauro to deactivate his Twitter account but also all the harassment and negative responses he was getting afterwards from Graves fans and others who hate him online.
Like with Rollins recently, Graves pretty much opened the flood gates for the online abuse to happen all at once towards Mauro. |

Is Graves trying to say that him shitting on Mauro and causing an avalanche of his fans to attack him is a "work" somehow or something... Towards what end...

Corey Graves is being a corporate shill, just like Seth Rollins

I've no issue with Ranallo being criticized for his often 'me-first' commentary where he's more focused on getting himself over than the product itself. It's just so beyond unprofessional to do so on Twitter.
Eh, Ranallo might be easily triggered but it seems like it was done TO TRIGGER the guy. It's soft, but I wouldn't love getting destroyed with abuse from the Twitter mob over something into which I pour my heart and soul. Though I do agree with Destor. At the end of the day just man up and tell the dude to fuck off and to show some professionalism. If Graves has a problem with that, well, then he's as much of a dingus as he seems. |

It's not that horrible a comeback since Bryan Alvarez is a really bad wrestler

The moral of the story is simple:
Mauro sucks Corey has free speech Mauro should be fired and can go get a job doing data entry where he doesn't have to worry about his feelings |

While Graves has free speech, criticizing his colleague in a public forum was unprofessional. Especially considering that Mauro's issues are well known. |

People in WWE trash other people in the company publicly all the time
It sounds to me like WWE, his employer, has made reasonable accommodation and now has an employee 'no call no showing' |

When Mauro returns he definitely deserves to be written up for job abandonment.

I mean he's okay. An indy guy with decent mechanics. He doesn't have the 'it' factor but that doesn't mean he's bad at his other job. Understanding how to connect with a crowd and being able to execute are two vastly different things.
