Former WWE referee Earl Hebner recently took part in a K&S WrestleFest virtual signing, where he answered several professional wrestling topics.

You can check out some highlights from the Q&A session below:

On how nervous he was before the match:

“Well, from 1-10, I’m going to double it; 20. When I was walking to the ring, and if it was 100 feet, it felt like 10 miles walking to that ring for that match. Never been so tensed and stressed in my whole life. In all the matches I’ve been in, that was the toughest one of my life.”

On not being Vince McMahon’s first choice as referee:

“There was no other referee that would really stand up to do it. Tim White was asked to do it and he wouldn’t do it, and I don’t think the rest of them would’ve done it.”

On calling for the bell early against McMahon’s instructions to wait wait 10 seconds:

“That’s how nervous I was.”
