Should William Regal have won the World Title after his King Of The Ring victory? Let us know in the comments below!

[@paulrhyslloyd1]

Of course, he wasn’t the most charismatic of wrestlers but he could do the serious villain or the goofy character while being technically sound, safe in the ring all while making his opponents look great to.

[@StevenR84]

No cause he stole

[@StevenR84]

@@paulrhyslloyd1 That's not the question

[@paulrhyslloyd1]

I meant of course he should have had a run with the World Championship.

[@StevenR84]

@@paulrhyslloyd1 Hell no! He used to win with brass knuckles like the intercontinental title and to Santino Marella 😂

William Regal is one of my favorite wrestlers ever. When Regal got in that ring, you knew you were going to be in a fight. Dude was legit. A stiff, tenacious, crisp, bloody, technician who always made everyone look better. I legitimately love wrestling because of guys like Regal, Benoit, Dean Malenko, Eddie Guerrero, Jericho. Regal is a legend in my book. What a national treasure he is.

[@chrisstorrer]

He really is a credit to his nation, makes me think that British "the wrestling" must be very special.

[@Lord-Of-DogTown]

@chrisstorrer I believe he inspired guys like Pete Dunne and Zack Sabre Jr. Similar styles and fun to watch.

[@jessebunnell6442]

Couldnt agree more! Love Regal! This man is a legend to me!

[@ginobenatti7830]

When listening to a lot of these interviews I really appreciate the introspective details that William Regal brought. The cameraman information is something I’ve never really heard before and I get it gave me a great respect for their own job duties.

[@Nclchitchat]

I worked as a pro referee for 14 years (and even refereed a couple of Regal's matches in 2004 or 2005 when he worked a couple of shows in the UK) and hearing Regal talk about working to the hard camera is a lesson I learned the hard way. As a TV referee (or if a show is being recorded for TV or DVD etc) you always have to work from the back 2 corners so that you don't walk in front of the hard camera and if a wrestler has the guy their working with in a rest hold facing the hard camera, as a referee you want to be on a angle so that your not hiding the wrestler in the hold and their selling and facial expressions.

[@dannyniland2927]

The Passion that Regal has for wrestling is shown here. I'm like this when I'm training people where I work. Going into detail.

[@BackwardGalaxy]

Regal was the guy who could work but was no threat to popular guys. He was the perfect talent to work with Rock, Austin, HHH, Angle....when you were trying to keep those guys apart until the next PPV.

[@stylepartner5123]

great point

[@JoshWiniberg]

As a British kid who grew up in the attitude era I was never a big fan of Regal. I'm not sure if it was the gimmick that just seemed a bit cheesy for a British kid, or his wrestling style that was more technical than showy. Now I think he's absolutely brilliant, so much respect for this guy and his knowledge of the industry. You can tell he just lives and breathes wrestling.

[@klsecond5755]

cause he was a heel.

[@markperkins2656]

I hated William regal when I was younger but as I’ve got older I could listen to him for hours 😂😂😂

[@JoshWiniberg]

Same! I think he's someone who really grew on me when my tastes matured. Yes the People's Elbow was electrifying, but these days I'm much more impressed by these technical wizards like Regal who know the craft and the business inside out.

[@absurdist5134]

Him talking about wanting to give people a fair go, That's a bloody man right there.

[@SethHolmes]

As an interviewer, someone giving such in-depth answers is a dream. Maybe you don't get to all your questions but you get great answers and don't have to worry about padding. Regal is so fun to listen to.

[@jessebunnell6442]

I genuinely LOVE you William Regal! You are a legend to me and you deserve so much more than you ever got! You are greatness!

[@robertcouchin]

ill be honest im a wrestling fan and have been my entire life and ill be that till the day i die. i knew wrestlers had it hard. I knew the people putting the rings up had a hard job and even the refs also put rings together. some not all i know. but i never ho nestly ever till right now thought about the camera men and holding the cameras and how their necks and backs are done after working like that.

[@chrisstorrer]

Regal dropping pearls, it's mind-blowing.

[@ikkykhan4783]

A true gentleman and legend of the game. Any fan should watch the old footage of Regal as a Heel and a Face. An immense talent and hard worker in and out of the ring.

[@jessebunnell6442]

100% legend!

[@stylepartner5123]

From Codsall down the road too, love you William

[@johnbeer4963]

I'm not having a good day. William Regal is exactly what I need to make it a good day at least for the 17m21s of this video

[@christopherballero866]

While never a main eventer but he's a great wrestler & had a really great underhand career

[@depekthegreat359]

William Regal is one of my favourite ever wrestlers with his vicious negative shades at time and he is one of the all time greats in the sport,good friends!!!LONG LIVE,WILLIAM REGAL SIR!!!🏋‍♂️

[@chrisstorrer]

Guy is such an effing legend.

[@StevenR84]

2003 is the best year and I commented it to WWE on November 13

[@Kai_O_Cad]

So many people got bullied in WWE too

[@themanifeststation3757]

He is forever Lord Steven Regal in my mind. I love Regal, was always a fan. I thought his style was legit. He was an excellent heel too.

[@vierapride97x]

To sit under the learning tree of William Regal must be awesome and intense, but nonetheless an honor.

[@BHyouknowthat]

2:51 FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT

[@laurenced2916]

Love the fued he had with Jericho

[@BryanMccomb-sg7qw]

I remember watching WCW back in the day with my mom she used to call him lady thighs I guess he had them so ever since then that's his nickname

[@Reece29287]

Regal is like the Marco Pierre White of wrestling

[@kylesmithies1502]

Is anyone else commenting on his accent? He’s using his real northern English accent

[@MarkHalberstram]

Sounds Lancastrian?

[@khylelewis]

Damn I never thought about the hell that the cameramen go through. Those cameras are set up so they can't switch shoulders as well. Hope Vince and co give them good medical insurance plans.

[@markryan5104]

Regal is the real People's Champion!!!!!!!

[@BarksyArt]

Blackpool ❤ William regal. Top man.

[@dutenica]

Everything Regal is saying here is very true.

[@sidious187]

Omg wheres the rest? -Californian who doesn’t need subtitles

[@chrisstorrer]

Check the video description. (i think the subtitles were for when he was off-mic, but it is absurd that some americans can't understand english when they here it!)

[@dixienormus6941]

He’s high as shit

[@ducklife420]

drunk

[@paulgibson6660]

Definitely some form of intoxification or medication

[@protector22222]

You can actually hear his real accent. When he's on TV. He tweaks it a bit to make it seem a little bit more high class, but you can hear he's got a little cockney in his accent

[@gareths2449]

Cockney? He's got a midlands accent, because he's from the midlands

[@protector22222]

@@gareths2449 yes that one... thats the one... sorry all i know are the two dialects... but i know he uses a fake one when he is on tv

[@UNoWhoitis23]

Hows it disgraceful for America to celebrate a day with family when the UK has literal icons from other countries locked away in museums for their public to pay money to prod and look at. The orignal colonizers trying to say anything about the subject is truly irony at its finest. And quite bluntly stupid. Love Regals work but he came off asinine and uneducated with that comment. To put it bluntly if they weren't conquered as is natural in history then the holiday wouldn't exist. Now have fun celebrating a day dedicated to guy who literally committed terrorism in your country 😂.

[@rynzy6224]

ye, no monty fans overe here move along!

[@BruceMcGivern]

CTE Hits him hard. I can't follow any story he is telling, there is no structure, he is just all over the place.

[@Guitarplayer724]

Maybe it’s you? I had no problem following him.

[@EvaluateAssimilate]

​@@Guitarplayer724 I hear what the OP is saying. Whilst Regal was coherent, he wasn't really following any particular point/question other than association in his mind, which led to a rather discursive discussion. Not that it made the video any more or less enjoyable, though.

[@Romchikthelemon]

Whys does that mammas boy sound like a talkbox?

[@atlchopperz1765]

Don’t trash our holidays…yes its origins might be marked in the blood of native Americans…..but it’s also about eating to excess and being with family….watch a Publix commercial a hole

[@loay200091]

big mistake letting him back

[@nzelver559]

Lol he only went back because his son is there

[@intello8953]

Why?

[@sydneycbr]

I’ll bet it’s about having no gag reflex.
