Incredibly, Regal would be on national television in the UK aged just 18. Teaming with the infamous Big Daddy must have made the youngster the envy of many other wrestlers, but the fame associated with being on TV didn't necessarily drive the man, who stunningly quit Joint Promotions after just three months. Contacting another promoter, Brian Dixon of nearby All-Star Promotions, Regal's idea was to become better at what he loved, wrestling, and theorised he could only do so by being in the ring night after night with guys better than him. Promising to give him exactly what he wanted, Dixon also noted that his new charge was mad to leave World Of Sport behind. It might have been barmy, but William Regal states that he only ever really wanted a career in wrestling, not just short bursts of fame. A prolonged run in the industry was what he always sought to attain, and it's pretty cool that he's been able to manage it, still being employed by WWE in 2015.
