Back in 1999, all except one WWE referee went on strike. To replace them, every match had scab referees of WWE personnel like Tom Prichard, Harvey Whippleman, and The Brooklyn Brawler.
At Unforgiven in 1999, Harvey Whippleman took a bump and out came Moolah, Mae Young, and Debra to interfere against Jarrett as he defended his title against Chyna. Debra would hit Jarrett with his guitar and Chyna would pin Jarrett to win the Intercontinental Title. But Tom Prichard came out, showed the footage to Whippleman and disqualified Chyna, giving the title back to Jarrett.
Now I can't remember any other time where a referee used common sense and actively tried to correct a mistake like this (Chioda in 2011 was all on accident). So does that make Tom Prichard the most competent referee in WWE history?

Based on these circumstances, we could say that.
But Mike Chioda basically did the same for the Chris Jericho/Triple H match on RAW a few months earlier when Earl Hebner ripped off (justifiably in the eyes of many) Triple H with a fast count. So is Chioda more competent than Tom Prichard?

You and I agree on this. I'm also a super fan of Robinson.

LMAO. Glad to know there are other TWD fans here. And yes, she's disturbing, that's why she's such a badass.
