Other information

Jeff the Ref refereed many female wrestling fights from the 1980s until the early 2000s. He worked mainly for Festelle and DWW but also could be seen refereeing matches at other companies, particularly the German BekaFilm/GMC producer. He was highly rated by most female fighting enthusiasts because he always did the essential parts of the job well - he treated the fighters respectfully, he intervened when necessary but never more than required, and he knew how to position himself so as to avoid blocking the camera angle and spoiling the video footage. Always employing a sense of humour, he encouraged sportsmanship between the fighters and was usually able to defuse difficult situations where tempers were rising before they got completely out of hand. This was especially important in two of his matches where the volatile Tina Antman wrestled the equally unpredictable Anita H at Festelle, and fiery Eveline at DWW - (see Notable matches for both).
