WWE's NXT brand held their Roadblock special tonight. As the road to WrestleMania 40, and Stand & Deliver, is drawing close, the brand saw a couple big moments. A Superstar returned after being out of action for nearly a year, but that wasn't the only big comeback during the show.

When William Regal left AEW for an office job with WWE, he had a very interesting clause in this release paperwork. It was stated that Regal couldn't appear on WWE television for a full year, which is why he wasn't around to announce WarGames. That clause has now expired, and Regal is back in NXT.

During WWE NXT this week, the No Quarter Catch Crew took the ring with the Heritage Cup. Drew Gulak, Charlie Dempsey, Damon Kemp and Myles Borne looked intense, and they had a message for the rest of the NXT roster.

The stable proclaimed that they will defend the Heritage Cup as a stable, meaning anyone in the faction can put the title on the line. The said that they plan to represent the championship as true athletes.

Suddenly, William Regal's music stopped everything. Regal then came out to a rousing ovation from the NXT crowd. "Welcome back" chants erupted at Regal. Obviously, fans in the NXT Arena didn't forget about the former General Manager.

Those chants soon transitioned to "He's your Father" directed at Dempsey. Regal didn't have a ton to say, but he did make it very clear that he will have his eye on that Heritage Cup, because of how much it means to him and everyone from the rich European pro wrestling tradition.

We will have to see when William Regal shows up on WWE television again. It was certainly a very nice surprise to see him pop up during NXT Roadblock. He is currently the company's Vice President of Global Talent Development.
