Line 9:
* [[Affably Evil]]
* [[Anti
* [[Ass in Ambassador]]: Despite being a "Goodwill Ambassador".
* [[Calvin Ball]]: ''WWE Backlash 2001''. Duchess of Queensbury match. Regal versus Jericho. Jericho tries to pin Regal? Match is divided into two rounds, and round one just ended. Jericho gets a submission? No, submissions aren't allowed. Yep, Regal (then as commissioner) tried to change the rules to screw Jericho out of a win. {{spoiler|Regal}} won the match.
Line 20:
* [[Hairstyle Inertia]]: Maybe not from childhood to adult, but from the mid-1990s to around 2007, he had the same very short, buzzed, slicked-back [[Showthe Forehead|Show the Forehead]] hairstyle. Later on, he grew it out about several inches or so.
* [[Literal Ass Kissing]]: First member of the [[Vince McMahon]] "Kiss My Ass" Club.
* [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]: Known for being one of the friendliest wrestlers in fan circles, having an all-or-nothing approach when it comes to autograph signings: Everyone gets one or no one does, and he happily gives advice to younger wrestlers and those looking to become wrestlers.
* [[Meaningful Rename]]: When he returned to the WWF in 2000, he went from Steven Regal to William Regal to honour his recently passed grandfather, who helped him get into the business.
* [[The Mentor]]: While he hasn't trained that many wrestlers, those he has trained have gone on to have excellent careers, [[CM Punk]], [[Bryan Danielson]], [[Samoa Joe]] and [[Ring of Honor|Chris Hero]] being the top of the heap.
