Hebner is infamously known for being WWE’s senior referee and has officiated some of the company’s biggest matches in the business’ rich history, including the Montreal Screwjob. Hebner later worked with IMPACT Wrestling for the better part of 11 years and along with Jerry Lynn was one of the officials apart of ALL IN back in September.
