Insight with Chris Van Vliet

Mike Chioda: The WWE Referee Of Our Childhood Has The BEST Stories!


Listen Later

Mike Chioda (@mjcchioda) is a professional wrestling referee who is known for his 35 year career in WWE. He sits down with Chris Van Vliet in Tampa, FL to talk about his legendary career and being the third man in the ring for matches like Eddie Guerrero vs. Chris Benoit, The Rock vs. Hulk Hogan, Kurt Angle vs. Brock Lesnar, 123 Kid vs. Razor Ramon and so many others. He talks about what goes into being a great referee, the cues he hears in his earpiece, being released from WWE, his time in AEW, working Ric Flair's last match and much more.


Quote I'm thinking about:

“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” - George Bernard Shaw
