Sydal added that he had a 15-minute match with William Regal who is currently the GM of NXT and added that they focused on delivering a good quality wrestling match. He stated that there was no storyline involved but they just went out there and did what they had to do.
I think I wrestled William Regal and it was one of those that we kept going and going. It was a live event so I think it went 15 minutes. It was one of the favorite matches I had while with WWE.
The type of wrestling I like to do, it transcends languages and boundaries. It doesn't matter if it's Japan, Qatar, Mexico or the US – we all speak the same language and that's the unifying thing. Some of the things I learned from Regal were the universal qualities of wrestling. (h/t: Wrestling Inc)
