WWE Official Details the Surreal Experience of Being a Part of a Huge Match at WrestleMania 37
WrestleMania is one of the biggest events for WWE Superstars as they finally get to showcase their talents on the grandest stage of them all. To feature in a WrestleMania match is something of a career accomplishment, and few get the opportunity to shine at that stage.
Although it is all about the Superstars and wrestlers in the center of the ring, the experience is also magical for the referees that don’t often get the spotlight. The men and women that officiate the match and move around with the Superstars go unnoticed and fans almost never focus their attention on them.
My first ‘Mania match of my own in front of actual people. It will forever have a place as one of the best moments of my life for so many reasons. Nothing and no one can take this from me or the two amazing guys that worked for years to get there. #wrestlemania pic.twitter.com/N5RarNLcWB

In a recent post on Twitter, WWE referee Jessika Carr expressed her gratitude for being in the center of the ring at WrestleMania, and how phenomenal the experience was for her.
Carr officiated the match between Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn and had a ball of a time. Owens and Zayn took the best of themselves to each other, but it was the former that ended up winning.
To top off the perfect match, Owens delivered a Stunner to Logan Paul, who was initially supposed to team up with Sami.

Although referees don’t really get a moment at any stage, it is entertaining when they do get involved in matches. Referees will occasionally strike back at an imposing Superstar if they get too pushy.
