William Regal Calls MJF 'Entitled P***k' For 'Whining Over An Email’

The recent promo exchange between MJF and William Regal has been lauded by wrestling fans and industry veterans alike, with the two discussing their paths to the top of wrestling on the October 18 edition of AEW Dynamite.

However, on a recent episode of the Gentleman Villain podcast, Regal went into further detail of his relationship with MJF, adding more detail to their promo exchange:

"After two emails, I told him, 'You're 19, go make a name for yourself. I've spent a lot of time telling him all these things he needed to work on,' and being a really good microphone guy is one of them, but he was already good. That's how he came onto my radar. When he sent me the third email, which was basically the same thing I had already seen. Everyone I've ever met, I've done stuff for. I've already told the lad, 'send me an email.' I've told him twice. Sending me another one, when I have 200 or more people trying to get a job, and the people I'm already dealing with, he's just taking up my time now. He even said that. He sent me two emails, I told him not to send any more, and he sent another one. Why send me another one? He went out, did all the things that whoever has taught him, and the time he's spent with me, did all that and got himself into position. That's what I wanted, but he sent me a third one, on a day where I was probably 15 emails in for other people that I wish I could have gotten an opportunity for when I've already gotten him an opportunity, it's just going to take awhile, and he needs to go out and make a name for himself," said Regal.

He continued, "What I said was real. If all it took was for you to get an extra email, that I told you not to send me, to get you fired up to be this good as what you're doing, job done. It's actually sad that you let that be a problem for seven years. He doesn't remember this, it's common knowledge now. Not long after we met, I had two bleeds on the brain and WWE kept me completely isolated and stopped emails from coming in, being incredibly brilliant to me because I was having treatment. I was having amnesia and two bleeds on the brain. They stopped all emails coming to me. There were a lot of people, Ricky Starks being one of them. Sammy Guevara being another. That sort of went on the missing list for a long time. You don't hear them moaning about me. He's made it into something else."

As for MJF holding a grudge against him, Regal didn’t mince his words:

“How come he's the only person in the entire industry who has some gripe against me about that? Perhaps he's just a p***k,” said Regal. “Perhaps he's just an entitled p***k who needs to grow up a bit. That's what he needs. He's 26. If he's still whining and moaning about that, good for him. Good for him when he gets in the ring with someone like Jon Moxley, who has never acted entitled and has grown up very hard. Good for him. He's going to get battered. Not just physically but mentally. Jon Moxley is ahead of the game.”
