So he had no problems murdering and committing horrific acts of violence for the mob but turned then turned the chickens came home to roost, Chioda was a referee actually doing a pretty thankless job, I don't know if he had health issues with his throat or it's just age but his voice wasn't like this 20 years ago

I’ve always preferred Chioda because the way he counts the three is satisfying to my ear. Hits the mat hard and with purpose and never feels like he is scared they won’t kick out if that makes sense to anyone.

Chris’s interview style for pro wrestling is like no one else out there. You get so much information and it feels like they’re just having a conversation. so many times it seems like other interviewers it’s just question answer question answer. So cool hearing a refs perspective on such a long career during two of the best times in pro wrestling.

I like the open! I never thought giving all of the answers upfront would make me wanna watch more. It worked 👍🏽

Mike Chioda should do voiceover, he's got a great villain voice

You’re on a roll, CVV!! Awesome interview! Chioda is one of the 🐐s of wrestling! You should try to get Earl Hebner if you can! 💪🏽

This was an amazing interview Love watching these Chris. Mike Chioda and Earl Hebner HOF need to start a petition to get WWE to put refs into the Hall.
