Summary
Another interview edition of the Tokyo Joshi Pod is here! Today Andy is joined by Mike Fullilove, better known as Ref Mike -- the same Ref Mike who navigated a cardboard Tesla in Austin and refereed Yuki Arai’s title defense in Las Vegas. Mike joins the show for an in-depth conversation about breaking into the wrestling industry and jumping on board with Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling. We also talk about his upcoming trip to Japan, his advice to other referees, little know responsibilities during a show, and the types of matches he enjoys the most. If you’re curious about a referee’s role in the business or you just can’t get enough Ref Mike, this is one you won’t want to miss!
