This is from a recent interview he did with The Sun... The full inteview is here. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/wrestling/article1087812.ece

Some highlights!!

On Ric Flair: "I was talking to Ric a while back and he said: ‘Do what you're doing now as far as the brawling and the aggressive stuff, but still put in your bits of wrestling.' "I know he's always been a fan of mine and I was honoured that he picked me to have his last match in Japan with, at the Budakon. "I got really choked up before the bell went, when he said: ‘There's nobody I'd rather be doing this with than you.'"

On rising stars: "MVP is someone I spotted right away. He's only going to get better and better. CM Punk has a character that people truly love, Fergal Devitt in New Japan will be something extra special and Bryan Danielson, as my little protégée, goes without saying."

Regal puts over Nigel McGuiness and talks about how he's tried to get the WWE to notice him.

Nice to know he didn't just talk about WWE stars. He's just stating the obvious with MVP and Punk lol.

I didn't know that Flair and Regal were so close.

Nigel would be great in WWE, I'd rather see Danielson in TNA though, but I have a feeling he is probably going to stick with ROH for much longer, possibly until they get a TV deal. I wonder if the Flair/Regal match can be found because I would love to see it
