The 64-year-old veteran has had a career spanning over four decades. Armstrong has found success both as a wrestler and a referee. He served as a referee for WWE from 2006 to 2022. During his time, he briefly did Triple H's dirty work and acted as a crooked referee for The Authority. Later on in his career, he transitioned into being a producer.

Scott Armstrong wrestled CM Punk in his only WWE match on an episode of SmackDown in 2009. Since then, he hasn't been very active in the ring, having worked only three matches in the last decade.
