Update on William Regal following his final AEW Dynamite appearance
As seen during the December 7th 2022 edition of AEW Dynamite, William Regal made his final appearance for AEW in a pre-taped segment. Regal praised the Blackpool Combat Club and said he’ll be with them until the day he dies.
According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com, WWE sources have indicated that Regal will start his new backstage position with WWE during the first week of 2023. Johnson also noted the following…
“Regal’s final appearance on AEW TV was pre-taped as we are told that he had a trip to Great Britain already planned and would not be back in time to do another live appearance. Hence the story that it was ‘taped two weeks ago.'”
Regal’s podcast will also be coming to an end. Regal’s co-host Matt Koon said the following via AdFreeShows.com…
“Mr. Regal is no longer doing the podcast. We have three episodes left. This is one of them. Next week, we have something very special. Mr. Regal sent me an email a while ago. This email was something he made a while ago called, ‘The Do’s and Don’ts of Professional Wrestling.’ It’s a list. It’s a long list of things wrestlers should do and wrestlers shouldn’t do. Maybe with a guest next week, I’m going to talk about that. The following week, we’re going to give a little preview into the new podcast, we call it my new podcast, but it’s not really, but someone much bigger, much more famous, much bigger in the wrestling world, much more current person that is going to have a podcast on AdFreeShows/Podcast Heat, and that show is going to be on this feed. So if you subscribe to this show, just hang tight. Listen to it. We’re not saying who it is yet.” (quote courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
