Who's going to be the first referee in the hall of fame?

[The Rick Jericho]

Eventually, we gotta get someone in. So who will be the first?

If they haven't yet, who knows how much longer they hold out?

[adamclark52]

It should be Earl but that ain’t happening (he is in TNAs though)

[Pushed to the Moon]

I think Chioda fell out with the company big time so it won't be him.

[Totorob101]

Either Charles Robinson or Joey Marella I feel,Charles is a legend and Joey was a great official,taken far to soon.

[Pooh Carlson]

The answer is other: none.

[Hypnosis]

Lil' Naitch.

[thelonewolf527]

Trick question, Teddy Long is already in the Hall of Fame

Lil' Naitch! I don't know if Hebner will get in unless he and Vince patch things up, but he f***ing sucks anyway.

I thought all it was, was they let him go last year after 31 years.

Did he go on a shoot interview spree and let everything out?

Can't be one single appearance on AEW = banned from hall of fame?

He was on Jericho's podcast and said they fired him out of nowhere for a supposed "dress code violation" but he thinks it was really because someone had it out for him and was just looking for an excuse to get rid. Either way he wasn't happy about it.

Is Tim White warrior award material? I don't know what direction that awards goes in now, but he's done a lot backstage during his time.

Timmy would be my choice too.

That is wise, Mr White.

[Kalmia]

It should be Earl Hebner. Nobody has refereed more legendary matches and is more recognizable than he is. Vince has forgiven worse sins than his, too.

I've always had a soft spot for Lil' Naitch and would be happy to see him in there. I'd like to see Joey Marella in there too, but I can't see it happening.

[Main Event Mark]

The Canadian in me votes for Jimmy Korderas.

[Cranjis McBasketball]

That idiot Marella couldn’t even count to 3!!!

[cassonova]

Plucky young ref, Shane Stevens.

I believe, while guys like Hogan, Bret, Jarrett, Warrior, all had different reasons when they left and how they made up. The one thing they didn't do, is literally steal from Vince.

That's why I believe I read something years ago, saying the Hebners would NEVER be welcome back. Because that's a line that went to far. You still from Vince. It's over.

The others left over creative differences or money that was rightfully owed to them. Hebner's just decided to be greedy and that's what happens.

Remember when The Rock stared Earl down for f***ing up the finish to his match with Angle at No Way Out?

[This Player Hating Mothman]

Hebner the second he finds out WWE is inducting a referee:
