The member of the Hall of Fame, John Bradshaw Layfield reveals whether or not WWE arbitrators receive a salary increase for receiving blows during fighting. The referee's blows have undoubtedly become one of the most used clichés in professional wrestling during the last 30 years.
Not only the referees are frequently demolished while arbitrating a fight, but the fighters who act as guest referees lose the ability to recover quickly once they wear the white and black scratching shirt of referee.
Classic referees such as Earl Hebner, Tim White, Charles Robinson and Mike Chioda have had moments for memory when receiving blows amid the fighting or having to run to become a secondary referee after the principal was shot down and could not count.
Recently, during an episode of questions and answers in the submissive podcast to Wrestle, they asked the ex -champion of WWE, JBL, if the referees charged extra for the fighting where they are beaten. Although he cannot talk about the exact formula of the current referees, Yes confirms that they used to charge extra when the action required that they were more aggressive than normal.
“I do not know how the situation is currently. But before. The referees received extra money when they participated in the action being beaten by the fighters. Now I don't know if they do or not. I imagine that now they have it in the contract, but before, sure. They gave them extra money to do all those things. They do a very important job and if they are physically involved they deserve that extra “
