True: Referee Mark Curtis's ashes were mixed with the opening pyros for Monday Nitro

<p>

Referee Brian Hildebrand--known more by his stage name of Mark Curtis--was one of the most beloved referees of all time. Not only was he fantastically skilled at his job--the 'third man' in the ring is more essential than most people realize--but he was one of the kindest people you were likely to meet.

When Curtis realized he was losing his battle with cancer, he requested that his remains be cremated, and some of his ashes be mixed with the opening pyro of the wrestling show he loved so much, Monday Nitro. WCW agreed and gave a fitting tribute to a fallen friend.
