Referee Bryce Remsburg indicates he encouraged ‘f*** ICE’ chants on AEW Dynamite

Posted on by Joseph Currier

As the main event of AEW Dynamite was about to begin last night, it appears that referee Bryce Remsburg gave fans an extra moment to continue chanting before ringing the bell.

The Dynamite main event on Wednesday saw AEW World Champion MJF face off against Brody King in a title eliminator match. Before the bell rang, the fans in Las Vegas broke out in a “f*** ICE” chant, which has drawn attention today extending outside of the wrestling bubble. King is a vocal critic of ICE (United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and has released merchandise calling for the law enforcement agency to be abolished.

Remsburg was the referee for last night’s match and indicated that he delayed signaling for the opening bell to ring so fans could have more time to chant.

“It seems like the referee may have waited to ring the bell so these could resonate longer?,” Remsburg tweeted in response to a clip of the moment. “Oh no. Whoops.”

The role of ICE has been a significant point of contention in Donald Trump’s second presidential term, with criticism of the organization ramping up following the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis last month.

King was the victor of last night’s Dynamite main event, setting the stage for him to challenge MJF for the AEW World Championship at Grand Slam Australia on February 14.

Earl Hebner joins AEW, more referees announced

Posted on by Bryan Rose

Earl Hebner, along with a number of other referees, have joined All Elite Wrestling.

The longtime referee was announced as joining the roster tonight on AEW’s Twitter.

AEW also announced today that Aubrey Edwards and Paul Turner have joined AEW as referees. Edwards has refereed in the Pacific Northwest area, including Defy Wrestling. Turner has previously been a referee for Ring of Honor.

PWG referee Rick Knox and former CHIKARA referee Bryce Remsburg have also signed with AEW, with Knox being announced on the latest episode of Being the Elite.

Hebner is best known for being a referee for the WWE from 1988 to 2005, and perhaps is more infamously known as being the referee for the Survivor Series 1997 match between Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart. It was Hebner who made the call to ring the bell once Michaels had put Hart in the sharpshooter despite Hart not submitting.

After being fired by the WWE in 2005 for selling merchandise without WWE’s permission, Hebner joined Impact Wrestling and was part of the promotion until 2017 when they parted ways.
