There has been an update on William Regal’s WWE status and NXT future following his recent cameo appearance.
William Regal made his first appearance on WWE television following his return to the company last year on last week’s episode of NXT, where he helped anoint Ava the new NXT General Manager.
Regal re-signed with WWE in January 2023 after he left AEW in December 2022.
Regal had been unable to appear on WWE television for the first year since his return, and with that year now up, speculation has emerged about whether or not Regal will appear on WWE television more going forward.
During the NXT Vengeance Day media scrum, Shawn Michaels was asked about Regal’s appearance on NXT, where he said that his appearance was a cameo, but he has no doubt that Regal will make more cameos in the future.
He said:
“He came down here recently to endorse our new GM Ava. She’s already wielding pretty good power and doing a good job. As he mentioned to Ava, his phone is always open, he is there for her counsel in any way he can help. Here at NXT, when you have a staple and a foundational person like William Regal, you have to have more than just one shot with him here and there. I think everybody was extremely excited about his brief cameo on NXT television. I have no doubt we will have some other cameos by William Regal in the future as well.”
