Dave Hebner

[Savio]

Earl Hebner....I loved when king was saying everyone was "Hebnerized"

[Inadequacy]

I remember a match between Torrie Wilson and Sable. During the match there was a spot where they started rolling around on the ground and somehow the referee was sucked into it. After everyone got up he started rubbing himself.

Whoever that referee was is my favourite.

EDIT- It may have been Nick Patrick

I fucking hate Hebner! And it's nothing to do with the Screwjob either.

I caught on to the style of his close fall count, so every time I'd see him "over rotate" the shoulder I knew there'd be a kickout. Kinda ruined things.

My vote would probably go to Tim White or Charles Robinson.

[Nicky Fives]

I hate Hebner too.... he always botched spots when there was a ref bump, and he was way too choreographed for his count.... sometimes you can tell that he isn't even looking at the shoulders during a pinfall that isn't scheduled to be the finish.... my fave has got to be TIm White.... the bump he took in HIAC was crazy..... Chioda is pretty good too.... same for heel Nick Patrick & "Little Naitch" Charles Robinson

[Sovereigntywillpr]

Whichever Hebner didn't screw Bret.

And I hated that WCW Ref, I think it might actually be a young mickey jay, actually i take that back, he had a dark haired mullet and was such a mark-out. he acted like a handicapped mark on crack that was so overzealous jumping across the ring for a pinfall, what a jackass.

[Savio]

yeah Tim White was awesome too.

[Fabien Barthez]

The answer to this question, is 'The Fighting Irishman' Tim White.

[parkmania]

nWo Nick Patrick

[Rammsteinmad]

Little Naitch!

[DarKCentaur]

Slick Johnson!

[DarKCentaur]

At least, he's the best looking

Think it was Jack Doan.

Think you're talking about the late Mark Curtis (Brian Hildebrand)

[Executioner]

Tommy Young from the NWA in the 80s....best ref ever!

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Jimmy Korderas.

[Theo Dious]

Mr White, I don't think that's wise!

[Theo Dious]

Definitely Earl though.

[Triple Naitch]

nWo Nick Patrick

[Juan]

Dangerous Danny Davis

[Volare]

Earl then Lil Naitch

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Either Little Naitch or THE MAN THAT CALLS IT STRAIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE Bill Alfonso

[The Pope]

is charles robinson the david spade lookalike?

[Seth82]

Tommy Young or Jim Molineux are my two favorites

[Savio]

Jacklyn!

[AJHayes]

Herbner is a cunt.

Montreal: Never forgive, never forget.


I would have to say that my favorite is Tim White, Charles Robinson, or John Finnegan. The only one that I remember from my childhood is Danny Davis (during the blue shirt days).

MIKE CHIODA

[St. Jimmy]

Earl :y:

[IC Champion]

Tim White

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Mike Chioda for sure.

[The Show Off]

I liked John Finnigan from ECW, always seemed good to me.

Watching Bill Alphonso from back in the early 90's in the WWF is funny when seeing as fully transitioned to a manager.

[St. Jimmy]

HEBNERMANIA' BROTHER.

I thought the same thing about Theodore R. Long when he went from ref to manager to SD! GM.

[James Steele]

I do buy all my shirts from Earl Hebner. He has some awesome deals! :y:

[DAMN iNATOR]

Way to be behind the 8-ball Steele. I've been doing that for years!:D

[Fox]

Little Nature Boy Charles Robinson is definitely my favorite "Third Man in the Ring" (rep to anyone who gets that reference. It's pretty old school.)

[DAMN iNATOR]

Yeah. I know he's from Charlotte, N.C. and was trained by none other than Ric Flair...don't know what other "reference" there could be hidden there, quite frankly.

[DeathValleyBarry]

I'd have to say my all time favorite ref was in World Class Championship Wrestling out of Texas. Bronco Lubich. He was a wrestler, retired, then turned ref until WCCW folded in 1990. He, along with Gen. Skandar Akbar, for you "old School" fans, had an influence on
Superstars such as Mick Foley, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and Percy Pringle (AKA Paul Bearer). WCCW is where they got their "breaks" into the business.

For me, Bronco Lubich is most memorable for being the constant official in the Freebird/Von Erich feud. Those were my favorite times of the mid-late 80's period, as I had more exposure to WCCW than WWF/WCW at the time.

[Fox]

"Third Man in the Ring" was one of the first columns on TPWW.net back during the Attitude Era and the site's heyday.
