William Regal is the General Manager of NXT so you don't usually expect to see him on the side of the pond that he's from but the British wrestling legend surprised everyone on both nights of the Plymouth tapings to make an appearance.

Regal said he was there to talk to NXT UK General Manager Johnny Saint about a piece of business but thought he'd take the opportunity to thank the live crowd for supporting British Wrestling.

He, rather emotionally, went on to say that it had always been a dream of his to bring this level of wrestling in front of a live crowd in England because they have some of the best wrestlers in the world and have the best fans. He then says that NXT UK is for us!

Regal got quite choked up when delivering his speech so it's a shame that the emotional moment won't be seen in the episodes, but what a treat for the live crowd!
