Earl Hebner: PRIME TIME VAULT

We open Mooney's Vault to relive another legendary conversation. We welcome a man who has literally been in the middle of it all over his 40+ year career, referee Earl Hebner! Earl takes us back to the beginning, working on the ring crew and training with Tommy Young. Earl talks about what it takes to be a good referee and the role referees had in matches back in the day. He reflects on his time working for the NWA, and his memories of working with Ric Flair, as well as the famous Magnum TA vs Tully Blanchard "I Quit" match. Earl discusses the Montreal Screwjob - what he did and didn't know about it, how it affected his relationships with Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels, and the impact it had on his career. Plus, he shares memories of Stone Cold Steve Austin, Andre the Giant, Joey Marella, and much more!
