William Regal On His Current Relationship With Triple H

Aug 4, 2022

During the Triple H era of NXT it seemed that William Regal was an integral part of the regime both in front of the cameras and behind the scenes. However, WWE let Regal go earlier this year, and he has since gone on to work for All Elite Wrestling.

During a recent episode of his Gentleman Villain podcast the former Intercontinental Champion talked about his relationship with Triple H, and he noted that they’re very close even though they don’t talk that much.

“[He and Triple H] are very, very close, incredibly close, but we don’t talk to each other much,” Regal said on the “Gentleman Villain Podcast.” “He knows I work for somewhere else now … He knows I will never say, ‘Yes’ if I think the answer is no. That might tell you a lot of things about me, and there’s a lot of people that will tell you that … I am as straight up as a geezer as you can find, right?”

“Me and H don’t have great conversations. We don’t; the one thing we do have is music, though … We spent time learning our craft together, and me and him can just look at each other from across an arena, and I know what he wants, and I’ll take care of it. When we worked together, I was the last person [he talked to]. I probably spoke to him less than anybody else in the entire company. He didn’t need to speak to me; sometimes, I get a one-word text, and I would just take care of it. I knew whatever he meant. That’s how we worked together.”
