WWE Royal Rumble 2001 Roster: Where Are They Now?

Then: WWF Commissioner and bumbling fool William Regal was in his element by 2001. He had completely turned his life around and looked motivated to become a success again. The good news is that he did. The bad? He lasted just over two minutes in the Rumble.

Oh well, you can't have everything.

Now: Here's the thing: Regal does have everything now.

He continues to be happy as a key figure in WWE's system - the NXT General Manager also acts as a talent scout for the company, and he's bloody good at it. The UK legend is a national treasure, and still has it on the mic.
