Earl Hebner fired by WWE

Earl Hebner, the most well known referee in U.S. pro wrestling, was fired earlier today by WWE, allegedly for selling merchandise without authorization.

Reports that Dave Hebner was fired are said to be incorrect at the moment, although he was alleged to be involved and has been disciplined.

Earl Hebner has been with the company since 1988 when he played the role of heel Dave Hebner in the Andre the Giant title win over Hulk Hogan in Indianapolis. He's easily the most famous referee in pro wrestling history, stemming from his officiating the 1997 Bret Hart vs. Shawn Michaels match in Montreal where he ordered the bell rung on Hart. He was belived to have been the highest paid referee in the history of pro wrestling since that time as a reward for choosing to do what the company asked of him after promising not to do so to Hart, one of his best friends in the company.

He had refereed most main events on PPV for the past decade.

I knew this 13 hours ago when I posted. My gripe was that Dave hadn't got kicked out yet. Sure my real problem is with Earl, but I hope to see his family suffer too.

Jesus man, what's your beef with Hebner, why do you have some vendetta with him? Wishing death on a man is pretty stupid for something in the wrestling business

Umm, it was waaaaaaay more than wrestling.

 

[Devious]

Well then what was it? The Bret Hart thing? What?

 

[CalcuoCuchicheo]

The Bret Hart thing is about more than wrestling.....it's about being a man.

 

[Devious]

So it is the Bret Hart thing then? Well look, Bret Hart is my favorite wrestler of all time, and I know Earl did him wrong, but the past is the past. If you want to blame anyone, blame Vince, who basically forced Earl to do it, he didn't want to but he wanted to keep his job. And why would you wish misery on his whole family? They weren't involved in it. You are entitled to your own opinion, but I think you are taking this to the extreme. He's still the best referee to ever work in the business, and it's sad to see him go. But he did it to himself I guess, that's what you get for selling merchandise illegally.

The cocksucker swore on his children's life & then betrayed a guy who had been true to him for a decade. In addition to that, Hebner knew the whole Hart family. Oh, & got a fat paycheck for the betrayal.

Earl should get some of the blame for that, he screwed Bret no doubt. But look at the man who masterminded the whole thing if you really want to lay blame. I've read many interviews with Earl, he didn't want to do it, and he will regret it for the rest of his life. But he knew that if he didn't do it he would lose his job in the company he loved. Or blame Shawn Michaels, he was involved in it as well. But you're making it out like it was all Hebner's idea to screw Bret, and he only did it for a paycheck, which is wrong.

bret never trusted any of the other dudes though, that's exactly why he went to Earl.

If Earl was going to do what he did, he shouldn't have made a promise. It would still be sickening, but not as sickening as it was.

 

[bigmack]

earl is a coward. would you rather lose your job or your dignity?

But how could Earl not promise Bret? If he didn't make that promise, Bret would have known something was up. Look I'm not trying to defend what he did, it was a bitch move and he never should have done it. But this was 8 years ago, Bret has put it behind him, he's even forgiven Vince (Kind of, anyway), why can't you let it go? As far as I'm concerned, what Vince did was 10 times worse.

Earl was great, my favourite moment was when he screwed Bret

All hail Sir Earl
