It’s going to be a big week for NXT next week as the show is set to move to its new home on the CW. Over the years NXT has provided fans with many memorable moments, and names like William Regal have put a lot of effort into building the brand.
Regal recently took to social media to reflect on his time working in NXT with a heartfelt post. A fan responded to the post with a comment focused on his run with AEW which said, “Thank you for everything you did for NXT and also snaking out the competition (AEW).”
William Regal responded to the fan and clarified his role with AEW when he posted the following:
“FYI. Although it serves some people’s agenda, and having a massive amount of people who work in AEW that can only back me up, I went to AEW to help because Bryan Danielson asked me to. Please find me one person who can say otherwise. I arrived at 10 am until 6.15 pm ( est) to train anyone who wanted to come, apart from going to the rest room and refilling my water container, I never attended a single production meeting ( as I knew, if I were to stay there) I needed people to realize I was only there to help. Nor did I ask a single question about anybody that works there’s contract status.
I helped at the ring with what any of the talent needed. I showered and got into a suit by 6.30 then watched he monitor with everyone else. I’m giving you the right to ask anyone who works backstage or talent the right to ask them if I did anything but help with no agenda. Feel free.
I also didn’t call Tony when his Mom was ill. He called me and as soon as he told me where he was I ended the phone call and we spoke 2 weeks later. FYI, my deal was up in December ‘28. That’s when I left. These are all facts I can prove. Anyone trying to twist this has the right to check this out. I am friendly with 60% + of the talent and backstage crew. Feel free to do some real research.”
