Last Night on NXT, Ricardo spoke with absolutely no accent, as did Maryse. Obviously Kofi was faking, and I'm 90% sure Santino is, but how many Superstars, past or present, were/are using or playing up their accents on TV?

Regal uses a different accent than his real one. Santino's Canadian (of Italian descent though), so he's faking too.

I can't think of any others off the top of my head, (although I thought for sure I would be able to come up with a few) but one I remember was HHH during his short run in WCW as Jean-Paul Levesque, he had a really bad fake French accent.

I don't know if it counts, but Eddie Guerrero really played up his Latino accent about 100x what it was.

I reckon Rey Mysterio fakes his I don't hear much of an accent from Mysterio when he speaks english. Don't know why he'd have to fake one since he's billed from California. |

"Okay, you're English, but not quite English enough." I think it's because Regal is from the Wolverhampton area and so would have what's called a Black Country accent, which can not be understood by people from the south of England, never mind Americans. |

As somebody from the black country i'd like to hear his accent! and as i live in the south of england, i can concur, nobody can understand me either, so it's probably best he has a different accent! |

I thought Regal was from Blackpool?? Either way, he's the only one on the list who tones his accent down for TV.

It would have been great to see him act posh in that accent. |
