William Regal is a pro wrestling veteran with a career spanning 39 years. It's natural for him to know every nook and cranny of the industry. Former WWE Superstar Top Dolla shared a fascinating story about The Englishman from the WWE Performance Center.

Regal served as a backstage member and occasionally as the on-screen voice of reason in the old Black-and-Gold NXT. Several superstars have attributed their success and growth to the former WCW and WWE star.

When he was released from WWE, it was almost a given that Tony Khan would sign him as his knowledge of the industry is invaluable. At the Revolution pay-per-view, he walked out to calm matters between Bryan Danielson and Jon Moxley after the latter had defeated the former following a tremendous match.

The two-time WWE Intercontinental Champion on Dynamite further explained why he showed up during the match.

During the show, Top Dolla tweeted the following:

"William Regal once taught a class at the PC for an hour on literally NOTHING but how to make a proper pin. Genius," - Top Dolla tweeted.
