William Regal Addresses MJF Bringing Up His Past On AEW Dynamite

MJF has become one of the biggest heels in professional wrestling by saying basically whatever he wants on the mic, no matter how degrading or personal his verbal jabs are.

On a recent episode of AEW Dynamite, ‘The Salt of the Earth’ made jabs at William Regal, bringing up Regal’s past substance abuse issues during a promo session against BCC member Wheeler Yuta. 

Taking to the Gentleman Villain podcast, Regal gave his thoughts on MJF bringing up real-life issues in a wrestling angle:

"Do you think I care? I call myself out a thousand times over about what I've done with my life," Regal said. "I've canned it when I was younger, I've proper gone out there and hammered life and got up to all kinds of stuff that you would never get. I had a blast and I was out and then I did some dreadful, awful things.

"But I'm through it and it's really, 22 years out of date. He needs to update his material. But I just play into it, it's a part of me now, William Regal, it's a part of me that I am this old rogue that has done this and that, whatever it is it plays into this character that I just turn into. Nowadays you can't really do that, there's much less room for error. MJF has got something going, he's figured out whatever it is, he's got something going."
