    Absolutely. I feel this way about referees/umpires in sports too. The best ones aren’t flashy but just enforce the rules.

      The only place I’mma disagree with you on this one is in the case of wrestling referees; and that’s only because I got to watch Aubrey Edwards kick the shit out of Jeff Jarrett’s wife; and Edwards has a fantastic Figure-Four Lock. Beyond that kind of spectacle, you’re absolutely correct, nobody wants a referee who’s out for social media cookies or some shit in an actual sport.
