I remember Teddy Long as a referee in Jim Crockett Promotions’ NWA and then as the manager of Doom and the Skyscrapers.
The man made a hell of a career for himself.

He felt people consider boxing as a sport but not pro wrestling. To support this, even Landsberg claimed that, in a boxing match, a referee can stop a match if a fighter was hurt, but in WWE that does not happen; mainly because the crowd is more important.
The Phenom, who himself is a boxing fan, claimed, “I mean unless something happens where there’s absolutely no way that you can continue… If it was upto the refs. Then yeah, they would probably stop the match and get the guy out of there.”
