Was there any refs (actual refs not wrestler special guest refs) that would take a bump, no sell it, and just continue with the match? Or are they all designed to go down for ten mins with the slightest touch?

Earl Hefner keeps coming to mind when he started having shoving matches with triple H but that's the ref toughness I can think of, lol

I wouldn't want to mess with that SummerSlam '91 ref.

Rick Knox is a pretty tough ref.

Mark Curtis he choked out a fan who tried to enter the ring, he put him in a textbook guillotine. He was trained by Dominic Denucci who also was a good shooter.

From what I've seen, refs in Japan are not nearly as fragile as US refs. I saw one get knocked clear out of the ring, then jump right back in and continue officiating. in the United States that would be a Ref KO.

Maybe Ole Anderson during his stint as a troubleshooter ref. I haven't seen a lot of it, but he didn't suddenly go blind and actually enforced the rules, so he may not have been prone to blackouts either.

There have been plenty of tough refs but I don't think any ref would no-sell offense unless he was part of an angle, like Shane Sewell, and was going to end up wrestling anyway.

Rick Knox is the only right answer to this question.

Wasn't Ronnie Garvin an actual referee for a minute? Not sure if that one counts though.

I actually liked this angle in TNA. I wish they had more referees who end up being wrestlers and not vice versa

I'm sure I remember some bald guy on TNA who wore shorts, I dunno if he was meant to tough but he was bigger than a lot of the wrestlers from what I recall
