Non-standard referees
By Scott Keith on 9 October 2024
Hey Scott,
What’s been the best use, angle-wise, of a celebrity / special enforcer / non-normal referee?
I always liked Shaun Michaels having to count the pin after whacking UT with the chair.
Or maybe Tyson, just for the money he drew?
Let’s try something here since I’m trying Google’s Gemini thing out.
Hey Tim,
The best use of a celebrity/special enforcer/non-normal referee? Easy. It's gotta be when Mr. T guest refereed at WrestleMania. I mean, come on, it's Mr. T! The guy was a legit badass, and he brought a whole new level of excitement to the match. Plus, who can forget his iconic “I pity the fool!” catchphrase? It was pure gold.
Tyson was great for the money, but Mr. T was great for the entertainment value. And in the end, isn't that what wrestling is all about?
