Love It CVVCLIPS Bro.
Tommy Young is the GOAT but Chioda is up there.
WWE really needs to induct Refs into the HOF
They did induct ref tim white
@@SubZero_125only because he passed away
@@SubZero_125 Nah, they gave him the Warrior Award. 🤷🏻♂
Not only that but especially jim johnsten the composer of many iconic entrance songs
i always said if they did induct pete rose to wwe HOF they need to induct referee and people who made wwe what is it now - managers/referee/music composer ect..
I'm glad they went through with the glass spot. Shane was a made man after that shit.
Facts

😂
I remember one time I went to a WWE live event in LA. I shouted Mike Chioda when it was a bit quiet, and little by little real wrestling fans started shouting his name out as well. He's truly the best referee in professional wrestling; he's worked on some of the biggest matches and made the right calls when any wrestler got or nearly injured.
ill take things that never happened for 200
@@PitBullPlaysGameslol
Nice try Mike Chioda.
The best ref is that bald dude from AEW. Who did the Invisible Man vs Invisible Stan match
The one Mike Chioda moment for me that I will always remember is Judgment Day 2002 and its Hell In A Cell between Triple H and Chris Jericho. Y2J has Hunter in the Walls Of Jericho on top of the cell, and Mike Chioda makes the INCREDIBLY bold decision to climb up to the top of the cell as well and officiate the rest of the match up there, where he could have EASILY fallen off and potentially killed himself with just one misstep.
so true
True story: After a Smackdown in 2002 or 2003, Mike Chioda let me and my two friends into the ring as they were breaking everything down for the night. We ran in, shook the ropes, took a bump, and ran out. Mike was super cool to us.
Edit: It's actually hilarious that most of you guys don't believe me. If you knew more you'd even believe less, so, it just is what it is. Like the one guy said, it was a common occurrence back in the day that if you stuck around after a show and got down to the floor, you could talk to these guys and get into some pretty cool stuff, as long as they trusted you.
@user-pk8ce3hw1o I'm being honest.
Source: from the inside your butt?
Lies
@user-pk8ce3hw1o nah Mike is a nice bloke. When I was 5, he and I went out for drinks together at a bar and he paid for the whole tab. Nice guy
Ppl from my childhood always told me these same Stories about Refs letting them into the ring after shows, I never believed them fully. But your story confirms it
This is why i got upset with people laughing at Shane's quad tear at Mania. He was a fucking beast and gave us so many great moments that he really didn't need to!
Can't speak for everyone but I thought we were laughing at the absurdity of it. The guy can jump from too high and ragdoll his body around but the simplest thing is what hurt him lol
@@oshikuru09yeah. It was the irony. He’s been taking some of the biggest bumps in the industry but jumping over Miz is what finally did him in 😂
Wait people were laughing at that?
What an awesome clip, Mike Chioda is a legend! And how surprisingly decent that Linda had the most familial awareness of Shane's well-being. That plywood spot still stands out to me as so incredibly dangerous.
Surprised Vince wasn't like "Put my damn son through that glass if he dies he dies"
Anyone else he would’ve it was his boy couldn’t watch that one 😂 Grimey
@@Flyabove16 listen when it comes to Vince I think 💰 means more than 👨👩👧👦
@@shaquilleburton1611surprisingly no, Vince genuinely love his kids (maybe not his wife, and for sure not everyone outside of his family) especially since he was pretty much want the match stops
That’s not really true, Vince banned a lot of moves, piledrivers, running power bombs, broken necks are not something Vince wants, he’s really not that much off the wall.
I remember him holding the rope at KOTR, great awareness
The talk of Shane's boys wanting to become wrestlers....
I'm all for it, completely, to do it right, full time wrestlers.
A true McMahon that can rule that ring, poetic.
Chioda always rocked the elbow sleeve
He’s got a great speaking voice
I’d love to hear him talk on the mic more often
I was at a teenager at the time but i remember watching and wishing Mike Chioda would stop the match 😂
Great interview segment. It’s kind of astounding to me that Chioda is unemployed. I would think AEW would be all over hiring him. I think he could really help out some of the refs there and bring a lot of experience.
AEW refs could do with that.
@@thribsDefinitely it's a mess there
Can Triple H hire him back?
@@thribsI believe he criticized aew and I know how they can't take that stuff
He did work at AEW and retired after Ric Flair’s last match
Mike is a absolute LEGEND and ABSOLUTELY deserves a spot in the HoF if they ever decide to put referees in there.
Mike is fantastic at interviews. Was definitely a breathtaking moment.
Bro could voice Duke Nukem
Sounds more like masterchief
He has a distinct hint of Optimus Prime
A Legend of our childhood
I feel like Shane being “the bosses son” made him go extra hard to prove himself
And boy, did he go extra hard!
@@3lectronaut7he was quite possibly the craziest pro wrestler out of all of them… also, for having limited training… he could wrestler… and I’m talking about amateur wrestling… he knew how to go to the back very quickly
Mike Chioda was so iconic that I remember his name
best ref of all time. cool ass dude.. Mike "Mafia" Chioda
Chioda voice starting to sound like Sargent Voight from Chicago pd
With the glass, it was supposed to be sugar glass but the stunt guys weren't sure if it was going to hold up to the pyro so they went with the real stuff and didn't tell anyone. Kurt was hurting in a bad way because he was dealing with a broken tailbone from an earlier bout.
My 3 favorite refs growing up in order and who will all have a space place in my memory are
1. Mike Chioda
2.Earl Hebner
3. Charles Robinson
You name a big wrestling event growing up I promise you one of these three were probably the ref for that match back in the day. Sucks when Chioda was finally let go by WWE, just doesn't seem the same without him imo
Eh...repectfully disagree with Hebner. Earl's been involved in too many real-life controversies and has his fair share of botches. He's definitely a legend, but in the same way Brett Farve can be a Hall of Famer and still have the most career interceptions.
For my money, my top 3 are:
1) Charles Robinson
2) Mike Chioda
3) Mark Curtis (Brian Hildebrand)
@@PreferredCustomer I'm just saying who I will remember from my childhood in some of my favorite matches. I'm not even going into out of the ring stuff
One of our all-time favorite matches and so many moments that will have you cringing. But Mike handled it accordingly and hats off to Shane McMahon for always putting his body on the line and taking those risks for our entertainment and proving himself as well.
My interest in wrestling has long passed, yet I watch.
Speaks to the quality of the interviews and clips.
Good on ya.
Thank You Chioda
Loved Referee Mike Chioda. I remember JR screaming his name every time he got bumped.
Kurt broke his tailbone on the ramp right before he was supposed to put Shane through the glass
that's insane i've always liked kurt angle growing up but hearing his stories after retirement just solidifieds he's top 3 in my book.
The wrestlers are the stars but referees deserve just as much praise. They're practically the directors of these matches and the main communicators.
Charles Robinson and Mike for hall of fame
You know that suplex into the glass was bad, one, because you can *HEAR* Shane's head bouncing off the floor, but Kurt instantly put his hand on Shane's chest and he's looking at him like "holy shit."
Imagine the knowledge refs have omg love chioda
I'm always hearing good things about Shane MacMahon as a wrestler himself. He takes the craziest bumps and people would often just glaze over it.
He looks so young!
One of my favourite matches of all time. As a kid when I thought wrestling was real for a couple months, this match shook me. . this is a match I like showing to non-wrestling fans. As a matter of fact, I'm gonna watch that match right now
that might be the most memorable match I ever saw. it was incredible. it was so real
"I loved that bump"
Me too sir.... me too but that's behind me now
This has me dying. I remember watching this like it was yesterday!
“Always been a big boy” - PAUSE. 😂
One of the best matches I ever seen 😳💪🏾.
Mike Chioda ASMR....
But at Over the edge ‘99, “the show must go on”!
That wasn't Chioda's call, clearly. People react to processing unexpected death differently; for some, focus on work is the distraction they need to work through grief on their own pace.
My first thought
An accident happened and Shane’s problem wasn’t going to stop the full show. Stop being weird and self righteous and enjoy these stories
Guests should have a mic stand so they don't have to hold it for the whole interview.
"Shane had a lot to prove.."
Thats the thing though, he didnt. He didnt have to prove anything to anybody. He's the son of the owner (at the time). He doesnt, not one time, have to ever actually be in the ring. Not one time fall from the top of the titantron, not go throuh one gimmicked table, or through (what was supposed to be) gimmicked glass.
He didnt have to do any of that, while still having a place in that company. Not too dissimilar from his father. But the fact that they DID do that stuff, when they had no obligation to do it, especially from Shane, is the reason I have *always* respected him as a performer. Ive rarely *liked* him, which is a credit to him (and naturally his dad) being able to just easily getting me to hate them... but my respect for him putting himself in spots he never once needed to be in, while learning everything he needed to be as safe for himself and whoever he was working with, as he possibly could while not being a full-time talent, never needed to be proven.
Hands down one of the greatest All Time Street Fight is Shane vs Kurt KOR 2001
Mike Chioda debuted in WWF in 89' worked up to Wrestlemania 7, after working WM 7 he took a hiatus until about 92' and them returned to TV tapings that same year and worked as the longest running referee in WWE History.. I think Mike should be Inducted in the HOF..
Mike Chioda & “Lil Naitch” are in my Mount Rushmore of referees. My brothers & I have an inside joke with Chioda’s name lol instead of “M-M-M-My Sharona!” We would sing “M-M-M-Mike Chioda!”
Thanks so great Chioda is a legend!
Yeah but of course Vince O' Mac wanted the show to go on with Owen Hart, so this confirms to me that if Shane fell from the ceiling (kind of like his Big spots diving from high heights) and he hit the ropes or something hard and HE was Unconscious like Owen...Vinny would have stopped Over The Edge in 1999.
Lessons learned, and different when it’s your family
I think Vince was more concerned with how shitty the botched glass spot looked on camera than for the sake of his son's welfare.
Some more longevity for the hall of fame thinking of all the older refs to induct first from the good ol days to the last 10 years.. that would be amazing
Dada da Dada da Dada da Dada da da da Dada da Mike Chioda!
Bloody hell this guy needs to speak up.
For those saying they should induct referees; I definitely agree. The door has been open for this as Tim White was inducted, Teddy Long used to referee and was inducted. My understanding is that Earl Hebner turned down a HOF induction.
His best moment is when he takes too much time when Carmella cash in
Yeah, he was taking his sweet ass time, man. It was so unintentionally funny with Carmella screaming at him as well.
I haven't had cable in 20 years so I've missed everything after 04ish but i know Mike's name. Hence why i watched this, now I'll sub
Mike sounds like Tom watts
No one talks about the chair shot Mike took at WrestleMania
He’s a good interview
That match is so brutal man , sheeesh
For me the top 3 referees Earl Hebner , Mike Chioda , Charles Robinson
It may have been Prichard who said this but it was something like it was sugar glass but they didn’t know that it had been reinforced with something so thst the pyro wouldn’t shatter it or something
My favorite ref on smack down and SvR cuz he had the best count
Dude he could do voiceovers with that voice
Mike Chioda best ref ever
Jim Johnston and the attitude era and ruthless aggression era refs need to go into the hof asap
People don't realize & appreciate that Shane isn't a small dude -- he is/was like 6'2"-6'3" & around 230-240 lbs
Over 6ft?
I don't think so. HHH is 6" 2 or 3, Shane was not as tall as Hunter.
@@danjonmills you are probably right -- Shane was always billed as 6-2 to 6-3 while Hunter was always billed as 6-4 sometimes 6-5, but they are most likley closer to 6 for Shane & 6-2 for Hunter
@@danjonmills There's plenty of pictures of them standing together in and out of the ring and Shane is easily just as tall as Triple h.
Does anyone else kind of hear Kurt Angles voice, when Mike speaks?
The audio levels on this clip are trash
This guys fuckin awesome haha
Love Linda. She was a legit shooter
Volume is low, great interview though!
if it was shane and not owen that fell....you know the show would of stopped.
Mike Chioda should really try Voice Acting 👀🤫
Mike should speak up a little bit, I had to put my ear to the speaker
Funny how any other wrestler his saying becomes the show must go on ! Vince talked about the current roster needed to grab the brass ring yet when they go slightly off script he tears into them for not following the script !
Well, what the heck are you supposed to do when the gimmick doesn't work? Stand around stupid and repeat the spot, hoping it finally does?
Got damn look at the SIZE of that watch 😅
Why his forehead bigger then peyton mannings?
Shane didnt even look that big back then and were talking prime Shane'O mack ...
Wwe refs deserve so much more respect. The memorable ones anyway
Vince wanted him to stop the match, yet had ZERO problems going on to continue a show where OWEN HART fell 100 feet from the rafters and died in the ring.
Priorities, I guess......
Owen hart wasn’t his son, shane is so of course it’s different. Vince should have stopped the show when the Owen death happened too but it’s different when it’s your son
You're clearly a moron but there's a difference between a wrestler taking more punishment and a show going on after a death. But like I said you're a moronic virgin so why am I wasting my time
@@chris7_uyahshgs981 As I said…priorities. A life is a life. If you really agreed with what I said, then Your second sentence should have stopped at “…..when the Owen death happened”.
The Owen incident happened before this match so it’s possible Vince had learnt from that but doubtful
@@davidgreen6143 it's feasible. To quote the late great Sam Kinison..... "good answer...." Haha
Yet Vince had "Over The Edge 99" PPV go on. 😮
Vince as Shane goes through glass= don’t do it anymore.
Vince as Owen heart falls to his death in the ring= well the show must go on pal.. send out jeff jerret and Debra to do their promo!
3:41 stunt guy?
SOMEBODY STOP THE DAMN MATCH!
Where was that energy when Owen fell 70 feet and lost his life? If that's not selfish & evil, nothing is. #unforgivable
If he has not been inducted as of yet.wow no way
Kurt broke his tailbone during that match
Its crazy a guy that looks like a slinky toy in the ring has a very boss n deep voice
Is that you, Daniel Craig?
Sounds like Kurt
never watched this cuz only kids watched rasslin after 1999
Well he comment
He will!
I dont see him in wwe anymore he left or what
Left in 2019
🤠
Vince wanted to end the show with Shane hitting the glass. But no problem continuing the show when Owen Hart died. Really?
Wanted to stop the match but continued the show after Owens death.
do refs get drug tested? just wondered that
