Already…. That’s why I stay out the runour mill and gossip!!! I’ve just found out that there’s things being printed about my health. I am healthier than I’ve been in many years. I talked this week to someone about things that had happened to me in 2018.

Original Story:
William Regal has health issues that are “far more serious than have ever come out,” according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
Regal recently did an interview on Chris Jericho’s Talk Is Jericho podcast, which is scheduled to be released some time next week, where Regal detailed his health issues.
It’s unclear what they are at this point.
During his promo on Dynamite on Wednesday, the 53 year old Regal said, “I know that I’m not long for this world.”
“Time has flown by and my time is flying by,” Regal said. “I’m 53 now and let’s face facts, I’ve lived more than the hard life. I’ve made it that way through battles in the ring, through battles with myself. And it won’t be that long, let’s face facts, probably in the next, I don’t know, til I’m 65, 12 years, until the wife’s pushing me to the sunny window so I can look out while the toast is dripping out of my mouth. Because I know that I’m not long for this world. Too many empty bottles, thousands of them and a few broken hearts, sweetheart.”
