Line 1: {{~~work~~creator}} ~~'''~~[[William Regal]]~~'''~~ (born Darren Kenneth Matthews on May 10, 1968 in Codsall Wood, Staffordshire, England) is an English professional wrestler working for the '''WWE''' and arguably the biggest British wrestling star since the heyday of Davey Boy Smith. With a career spanning three decades all over the world, he gained the most fame and success initially in [[WCW]] in the mid-1990s as Lord Steven Regal and later the [[World Wrestling Entertainment\|WWE]], which he had joined in the last year of the famed [[Attitude Era]] and has been there since, first (and briefly) as Steven Regal the "Real Man's Man", and later (and since then) William Regal. He is currently the most senior member of the full-time talent roster, going by ring experience, having been in the business longer than several prominent WWE Superstars (such as [[Cody Rhodes]]) have been ''alive''. Regal has seen quite possibly everything there is to see about the wrestling business. He's one of the best in the ring, best on the mic, and knows how to tell a story in the ring. However, he's also seen the darker aspects of the business, particularly an almost crippling drug addiction that's unfortunately common in the wrestling business. He has since cleaned up and is arguably the greatest success story of WWE's Wellness Policy. Due to these facts, he's a favorite of diehard fans and [[Smart Mark\|smarks]]. Line 6: While William Regal has never been a world champion (saying "has never been" but not "never was" because pro-wrestling's [[Garbage Wrestler\|hardcore legend]] [[Ring Oldies\|Terry Funk]] proved [[Ten-Minute Retirement\|there's no such thing as actual, long-term, permanent retirement]]), he has extensively trained several future world champions currently employed by WWE. [[Triple H\|You might]] [[CM Punk\|have heard]] [[Bryan Danielson\|of them]]. {{creatortropes}} ~~=== '''Tropes associated with William Regal includes:''' ===~~ * [[Affably Evil]] * [[Anti-Hero]]: Self identifies as a type one.
