Did Jack Doan retire?
I haven't seen him on TV in quite a while and he used to be on RAW and seemed to be the main ref for Divas matches. Now that roll seems to have gone to the ref that botched a finish and couldn't bother to iron his ref shirt this week.
Hopefully someone responds and says, "He was just on _____ last week" or something. I hope he's not done. He's always been my favorite after Earl & Dave Hebner.

Doan was released by WWE in March 2013 and was the second longest tenured referee on the WWE roster at that time.

I couldn't stand him so i can't say i'm disappointed.
Mind you, Rudy Charles was annoying as hell at HiaC.

I completely forgot/missed his release. To be fair, his release was not really reported until a while after the fact. No WWE.com notice about it or anything. |

That's a shame... you would think a guy that had been with the company for so long would get some kind of mention, even if it was just on the WWE app or something. Makes you wonder if guys like Chimmel and Chioda will get the same treatment when they are released. |

Something must've happened behind the scenes...? Ok, found a reference link on Wikipedia. PWInsider reported it in June, saying he was let go in March or so. That seems odd. I would hope not. But then, Korderas and Tim White didn't get much either (simple statements on the site, nothing more), considering their tenures with the company. |

He's no Charles Robinson, but I would think a guy who refereed for WWE for over 20 years, should get some moderate send off.

Is Charles Robinson still around? Mike Chioda? Nick Patrick?
Li'l Naitch was a part of my childhood, man. Weird how WWE never seemed to have the same attitude to WCW refs as it did to WCW wrestlers.

The day Lil' Naitch leaves is the day I stop caring about the refs.

Just found Jack Doan on twitter @therealjackdoan Most of his tweets are him down in the dumps over having to work 12-hour shifts at a factory, and wishing WWE would re-hire him now that he's back in shape. He posted this at the end of August: "Before and After, I went from 240 lbs to 189 lbs in 4 months!"  |
