William Regal was one of the many people that Vince McMahon released from WWE. Regal’s firing came in a wave of nixing Triple H guys, but The Game wasted no time in getting his friend back in the company.
After a short stint in AEW, William Regal was permitted to leave Tony Khan’s company and make a WWE return. He will not be able to appear as a talent for this entire year, but William Regal is back with WWE.
According to PW Insider, William Regal is back with WWE, and he has a Vice President title. He is now Vice President, Global Talent Development.
PWInsider.com has confirmed that William Regal’s official title for his new role in WWE is Vice President, Global Talent Development.
William Regal, who is 54-years-old, was backstage at SmackDown last week. Odds are he will be a regular backstage for some time to come, but don’t expect him to appear on television.
Vince McMahon’s return to WWE only sees him as Chairman of the Board. That doesn’t mean he will take over creative, or fire all the people that Triple H brought in. It appears that Triple H will continue in his new role as head of the company’s creative direction, and that will include keeping William Regal around.
