7 biggest WWE Superstars with criminal records

#6 William Regal

Regal has largely remained uncontroversial during his WWE career

In the year 2000, WWE signed an individual who would go on to become one of the best international wrestlers of his time. William Regal competed in a few matches for WWE early on before he was made the on-screen commissioner of the company.

During his time in the ring, Regal won several championships including the WWE Hardcore Championship, Intercontinental Championship, and the WWE European Championship.

Known for his heelish antics on-screen and extremely good behavior off it (save for some serious substance abuse issues in the past), Regal ran into some trouble during a flight from Japan to the United States. According to Regal’s autobiography, Walking a Golden Mile (p.173-174), the WWE Superstar got drunk on the flight and went to urinate, but did not shut the door behind him. A stewardess approached him to close the door, but Regal turned around at the wrong moment and ended up urinating on the stewardess.

The WWE NXT General Manager does not recall the incident

Regal claims that he was so drunk that he does not remember the incident and only remembers waking up in a cell in Anchorage, Alaska.

Today, Regal is one of the geniuses behind WWE NXT and serves as the brand’s General Manager where he has helped the company develop some of the finest talents in the world.
