While NXT fans have the pleasure of enjoying the intense, laser-focused commentary of Mauro Ranallo, RAW/Smackdown viewers are frequently saddled with overly scripted commentary that focuses more on catchphrases, social media trending, and advertisements than what's happening in the ring. Match-focused play-by-play commentary where moves are called on the spot could envelop even casual fans and help immerse them into the product.

A sports announcers job is to narrate and help contextualize the action happening on the field or the court, so a WWE announcing team that consistently sounds focused on the action at hand would help make the company's programming more a lot more compelling and interesting to watch.

Unfortunately for the main roster, Ranallo is contractually limited to Triple H-helmed NXT due to his displeasure with the corporate culture created by Vince McMahon, so another good combat sports announcer would have to be brought in from the outside to make this change a reality.
