In professional wrestling, the number one rule is to always stick to the script. Even if you’re a referee who just had his leg snap in an incredibly gruesome fashion.
During Thursday’s NXT Live match between Tyler Breeze and Velveteen Dream, WWE referee Tom Castor suffered a gruesome broken left that left him lying on the mat in pain. But rather than have another ref come in and steal his thunder, Castor powered through it and rolled over to administer the 1-2-3 count.
The reaction from the crowd says it all.
