Wrestling needs a big Jon McCarthy as a ref

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

K this isn't a ufc vs. wwe argument, it's just something from the UFC that would work in the WWE.

Everyone percieves Big Jon as a badass, but they obv know he can't whoop the fighters asses or anything, but they also know he's hard as nails and would never fuck with him.

Wrestling needs a ref who is like "a new sheriff in town" and I don't mean a guy who stands up to the wrestlers in a story line sense. Just... if he's reffing a match, he holds down the fort. He'd know how to protect wrestlers if there were run ins/beat downs, he doesn't take soft bumps and doesn't get bullied by any of the wrestlers.

IMO a former wrestler would be great in that roll. I think it'd add to the psycology of a lot of matches... just knowing that with that guy in the ring there'll be no bullshit. And use him in lots of different situations so it doesn't seem too gimmicky.

I dunno maybe it wouldn't work given the traditions of wrestling, but it'd be pretty badass IMO.
