In the interview, Regal Said, “You can believe the myth of all the nonsense that Bryan was held down. At one point, he [Bryan] said to me, ‘I’m not doing anything.’ I said ‘Bryan, since you’ve come back after forget the NXT thing. But since you’ve come back into the WWE, has it been more than two weeks when you weren’t a champion?’ and he went. Well, yeah.”

“If you go back and look, at this point when he was talking to me about stuff, I said, ‘You’ve already been world champion. I’ve never been a world champion. At the moment, you’re going through a normal phase that everyone goes through. But you’ve been US champion.”

Bryan has accomplished a lot and has established himself as a legend. Some thought he hadn’t pushed hard enough, and that he could have accomplished more. However, Regal denies the myth in the interview.
