Former WWE referee Mike Chioda recently spoke on his “Monday Mailbag on AdFreeShows” podcast and commented on his conversation with Triple H prior to his release from WWE, his future as a referee, and more.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On talking with Triple H prior to his WWE release: “I had talked to Triple H, we had talked about it, it was a couple of years prior [to my release]. That’s why [me and my wife] made the move to Florida and he said to me, ‘I don’t want to see you refereeing when you’re 60-something years old.’ [I said], ‘I don’t want that s**t either, I definitely want to go out strong.’ At that point, the pandemic hit and everything. That blindsided me getting released by WWE. With the pandemic, I was still rehabbing my shoulder and I was not cleared to go back to work, so I got released.”

On his future as a referee: “Making the move closer to Orlando, and if I had to work at the PC and do stuff down there or on the road with WWE, it didn’t matter. I told them too, ‘I don’t want to be refereeing till I’m 60-something years old. I got a good few more years.’ At this point, I definitely got a couple more good years in me. I still go with the good, young kids and can still move around in that ring. I’ve got a couple more years but I want to be training or doing something else at that point [at 60].”
