[9.0] "Tommy Young was one of the best. He would sometimes try a little too hard during matches and draw attention to himself, but it wasn't bad enough to not want to see him."

[9.0] "My favorite non practicing homosexual. Tommy Young had great facial expressions, a wonderful knack for timing, an affinity for adding drama and I liked the way he counted - put plenty of body language into his work. Drawbacks were sometimes he shoe horned himself in a bit too much and put his hands on the wrestlers WAY too often, the shoving back 'n forth bit with Ric Flair is an all time classic though. The best is when he would fold his arms & look at Jim Cornette with a big "NOPE" all over his face. His career was cut short by, ah FUCK - by Tommy Rich, Tommy Rich sucks so hard. Tommy Rich had NO BUSINESS being on television in 1989 but there he was to MDK Young's career. Good is GREAT but the "why though? " is kind of brazen. 8.5"

[9.0] "Tommy Young was the premier referee of the 1980s, always adding to a match and never detracting from it."

[10.0] "Quite possibly my favourite referee ever. His timing was impeccably perfect. Reffed some of the greatest matches in NWA/WCW history and did it amazingly. This guy deserves every bit of praise he can get."
