www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2006300002-2007030566,00.html It's 28:15 long and a recent interview with Regal from over in the UK. Interesting stuff. Some of the stuff he talks about: -Talked about the resurging Finlay and his success -Bryan Danielson. Training him was one of his greatest moments and was high on the Dragon/KENTA match he recently watched on DVD. Said both Michaels and himself have tried to get him a job in WWE but Danielson is just not interested. -Said he would love to work again with Samoa Joe and Danielson in the future. He recently checked out his Memphis match with Danielson from a few years ago on YouTube and it held up well. -He still has a bunch of guys (Joe, Dragon, others in Japan) he would love to work with. When asked if he would leave if his contract comes up...he says he has a family to feed and he's happy where he is. -He's high on London, Kendrick and Kenny for the future. -He's confident in himself now and would love a chance at a World Title run, especially against a babyface Finlay. and much more.

I'll say it again, Regal is THE most underrated wrestler in the WWE and possibly the US. Name one thing he can't do? You really can't. And yet when you hear anyone's top 10 or whatever, Regal's never there. The guy can legit do it all in and out of the ring. It's a crime that he's never even had a shot at the world title.

I will say this about Regal. He'd likely never be a major draw or attract any new, casual fans, but if WWE were looking to push someone to the main event based on their desire to get them over, Regal could be extremely believable in this roll. I'm talking Benoit and JBL type pushes. Regal could most likely pull it off better.

The optimist in me sees WWE one day giving us a Benoit like feel good moment(for us interwebbers at least, assuming he'd be heel if it happens) in giving Regal the title. Who knows, it could end up being a really enjoyable surprise like JBL and Booker. What I've loved so much about Smackdown these last few years is when they take a chance on great heels as their champ, Regal would definetely fit the bill. I love hearing/reading his interviews, he seems like a really great person.

Whoa HBK and Regal two of Vince's Boys, can get AmDrag in, yet he doesn't want to.
I guess he likes having an actual social life.
Though I'd love to see Dragon come in as an HBK or Regal desciple.
Hell HBK having a new crew with Cade, London, Kendrick, and Dragon would be sweet

A Regal title run?
I've been wanting one for YEARS.
I'm a huge mark for Regal, always have been since I got into wrestling again in 2000.

I agree about Regal having all the right tools to make a title run work. I wish he would get a run with any title. I'm diggin the Blue Blood reunion, so maybe they'll get a prolonged tag title run. But yeah, Regal is criminally underrated.

Regal as champ? Yo dat be funny Cuz errbody knows he cant draw money Regal's matches like watchin paint dry if you like them you must be high Yes because we know that 1)It´s so boring the way he perform cool moves like the suplexes that he is always nailing. 2)It´s so boring his stiff blows that look that can legit hurt you. 3)It´s so boring the way he sells. Differente fro mthe guy from you sign, he sells the moves. 4)It´s so boring his heel antics, that different of the other 90% of heels in the WWE roster isn´t a "scary cat rying to win", he is a tought guy going hard on your ass, refusing to let go holds etc. Man he bore me to TEARS! I prefer John Cena. Why? I love that Fireman Walk Slam. It´s so...Safe. |

I love watching Regal, his promos are great, his wrestling is great and also pretty unique in the WWE. He can make you laugh, he's a great comedian, but his in-ring style is just brutal and really believable. In a fair world, he would be a multiple champion.
But he's not getting younger (who is?), and that means seeing a WWE champion William Regal is somewhat unlikely. But who knows, Finlay is also no hoss, also one of the older wrestlers and no technical wizard, but he has been pushed heavily. We can still hope.

I mean he hits guys for real in a fake sport. How much talent it must take to hit someone for real. |

Probably takes a helluva lot more talent than it does to make faces like a constipated highland gorilla, whilst having your offense look weak and fake, even for a fake sport. Word life. |
