5 WWE storyline ideas for Shawn Michaels

#3 NXT General Manager role

William Regal has been NXT GM since July 2014

The NXT General Manager position has been filled by William Regal for the last three years, but viewers of Triple H’s post-TakeOver Facebook videos will know that Regal wasn’t even present at TakeOver: Chicago earlier this year.

The former Intercontinental champion is a busy man and missed one of NXT’s biggest events of the year because he was scouting the next crop of WWE talent during a trip to Japan.

Even though the beloved Mr. Regal has been an entertaining GM, maybe it’d be good to freshen up the on-screen personalities in NXT. After all, having been in the role since July 2014, Regal is already one of the longest-serving authority figures of the 21st century!

With Michaels regularly on the road with NXT and backstage for TV tapings, he would surely be the first choice if a replacement for the Englishman is ever considered.
