Guest mach7 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 Apologies if this has been posted already, from Rajah: William Regal recently did a chat with the Lils Boys in the UK and revealed a future storyline plan for himself. Regal said that he hopes to get back to the ring soon and will begin once he is cleared by his doctors. He said that he is taking better care of himself and that the current plans are to bring him back as a commissioner on RAW to play a mediator role between Steve Austin and Eric Bischoff.

Guest Choken One Report post Posted June 13, 2003 Make regal the commish of SD just for uncanniness of Stephanie and Regal... Or Have regal/Bischoff alternate each week... JUST LET HIM BE A MANAGER! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest oldschoolwrestling Report post Posted June 13, 2003 I heard Mick Foley would be filling that role on Monday with Austin being away doing some promotional work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murmuring Beast 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2003 Make Regal the joke-figure of Smackdown. Honestly, I couldn't stop laughing when Regal came out wearing drag in that Texas Showgirls match with Goldust a while back. He's great in a comedy role. Love and Mercy.

Guest Army Eye Report post Posted June 13, 2003 Not that Regal wouldn't be great in that role, but COME ON! That's way too many authority figures.. and all these GMs do is get themselves and each other over anyway, never the wrestlers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest AndrewTS Report post Posted June 13, 2003 (edited) This would be okay if they weren't still keeping Bisch and Steve on the air. One figurehead is more than enough, thank you. Edited June 13, 2003 by AndrewTS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted June 13, 2003 Does Raw need 4 "talents" in non wrestling roles acting as GMs or the Commish? Just make him the manager of Harvard Nowinski, it was a good idea the 1st time they tried it. The world needs to hear Regal say Sunshine on tv again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Army Eye Report post Posted June 13, 2003 I'd like to see Regal manage. He'd be a great heel manager. Now this is a much more sensible idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AndrewTS Report post Posted June 14, 2003 So Raw will probably have co-GMs in Austin and Bisch, co-commishes in Regal and Foley. Vince can pop in whenever he wants, Linda often makes "big announcements," and probably we'll see a new "Chief of Staff" hired. Oh, vey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ANKLELOCK 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2003 Regal is an awesome authority figure in my view. I loved him as commish when he had that feud with Chris Jericho and the Duchess of Queensbury match. I have no problem with him being commish. 3 authority figures is a bit much though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2003 Personally, going by the way WWE usually acts, I could easily see them trying to get William Regal to manage Le Resistance to try to better get them over. Maybe that's just me though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Space_Cowboy Report post Posted June 14, 2003 With all the non-wrestling authority figures on that show you have to wonder where they'll fit the wrestling matches, not that they have many of those anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted June 14, 2003 Regal should be a manager or an announcer. I would more than happy to hear Sunshine or Besmirch than Bawh Gawd or tasteless jokes by Lawler. Get rid of Coach and make Regal the Heat announcer. Or he could do travel logs or interviews for Confidential. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe that's just me though. I thought the English hate the French. And I thought we like the English! Ahh WWE Geography it makes my head spin! Personally I think someone should approach a dejected Regal backstage and say "Hey Will what's eatin' ya? Oh bad choice of words." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
