While speaking on the Stories with Brisco and Bradshaw podcast, William Regal revealed that Scott Hall faked an injury in order to get Lord Regal signed to WCW back in the day.

“He pretended to hurt his elbow and told the agent, ‘keep this lad on the tour, for the next four days.’ So he just pretended to injure his arm and he stayed on the tour. At the end of it, they said, ‘we like you, we’ll get hold of you when the time’s right.”
