Regal’s first WWF stint in 98 didn’t last long at all did it? All I remember was that one match on Raw against Droz where Regal turned up out of shape, injured and drugged up and I don’t think he was seen again until he cleaned his act up and returned in 2000 and did the Commissioner Regal thing. Was that it for that run, one match?

Oh no my friend. He was back for about 2 months in late 98, he was still out of shape, still off his tits, but we got this entrance theme out of it.

How the fuck did I forget that? I don’t even have the excuse of being off my tits. Memory’s shot.

This is a bit of a cheat. Road Warrior Animal's run in WCW 2001. Comes out of nowhere. Technically MAIN EVENTS a PPV. As he's the mystery man in a 4 Corners World Title match where he turns up towards the end of the match. Yes, WCW was trying to reheat the 96 third man mystery vibe with Animal. It wa a horrible plan at the time, made that much worse by the unfortunate circumstance of Sid snapping his leg like a twig. Animal strolls to the ring for a 3 on 1 beatdown on Sid. Sid having spent the better part of 5 minutes in the middle of the ring with his foot flopping about in agony while this angle is forced to play out. 

Animal's then part of the Magnificent 7 angle until the company dies. His last match for WCW: teaming with Kanyon in a loss on Thunder to...MI Smooth & The Cat?!?!

I seem to remember Regal have a match on Raw in mid 1998, basically in the blue blood gimmick, then disappearing for a bit before the man’s man stint

WWF in 1998 was a strange, they hyped up Brackus for ages for him to get beat in the Brawl for All and then wrestle about 2 matches. Tiger Ali Singh, suddenly started appearing again after being off TV for months and doing a rehash of the Million Dollar Man money for fans routine

Even at very short notice, you could have found more fitting music for Regal than that, surely?

Pretty much any piece of royalty-free classical music would have done the job.

Would The Rockers in 87 count?
I think they lasted one tv taping?
