‘Most People Don’t Care I’m Off TV’: WWE Stalwart, Who Did The Undertaker a Huge Favor, Released an Emotional Message After Being Out for 3 Months

The Undertaker is arguably one of the greatest in-ring competitors of all time. But not all his victories are without controversy. The Phenom’s victory against Brock Lesnar at the 2015 SummerSlam is an example. The former may not have prevailed against ‘The Beast Incarnate’ without the help of a WWE stalwart.

Charles Robinson’s game-changing decision at SummerSlam 2015 undeniably favored The Undertaker. Recently, the WWE referee announced his return to WWE with an emotional message, after a hiatus of three months.

What did Charles Robinson have to say about his return?

It has been 22 years since Robinson first donned the referee uniform for WWE. He is one of the most beloved referees of all time. The announcement about his return was received well by fans and well-wishers. In a video posted on his Instagram page, Robinson talked about how he was excited to come back to the squared ring. The referee is set to join the WWE roster in London for the last few shows of the week.

He said in the video, “Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone! It’s a beautiful day here in North Carolina. I am flying out in just a few hours to London where I will be finally, finally after three long months be back in the ring for SmackDown, and hopefully have a match in Money in the Bank.” 

He also wrote in the post, “I am sure most people don’t care or even realized I was off tv, but I am pretty happy!”. But WWE fans everywhere would disagree with the referee. Charles Robinson, during his time at WWE, has elevated his profession to an art form. His performance has always been effortless, which makes him one of the best referees in the industry to date. The only people who might disagree are the fans of ‘The Beast Incarnate’.
