16 Things We Learned From William Regal On Talk Is Jericho

15. Meeting Dusty Rhodes

The interview takes place at Center Stage Theater in Atlanta, the former home of WCW Saturday Night. The two reminisce with Regal being surprised that Jericho had never been there and this leads into a hilarious story about the first time Regal met Dusty Rhodes. It was January 25th, 1993 and he showed up at Center Stage and asked for Dusty. He was shown to an office upstairs and when he walked in there sat €œThe American Dream€ stark naked except for a pair of cowboy boots, next to former WCW head of security Doug Dillinger. Rhodes just looked up at him and said €œI€™m just like Whitney Houston. I€™ve got my own bodyguard€ and that was that. Regal excused himself and that was his first day on the job with WCW.
