-- Last night at his one-man show after the Raw taping, William Regal was asked about why he wasn't wrestling on the tour, and he revealed that he got a three level cervical fusion surgery a few months ago. It's notable that he got the three level fusion surgery, because in the past, when active wrestlers got their necks fused, they opted to fuse less than three levels together because three level fusion is a career-ender. If he's retired, and it sure sounds like he is, then he went out in style with his NXT match against Cesaro that was taped a little over a year ago and aired on the year-end show that premiered Christmas Day. Looking back, the match was worked and presented felt like a farewell, so it seems like he might have known it was the end.

I had figured this, but i still had hopes he had one more match for either Steen or Devitt. Oh well
