WWE star William Regal commented today on the death of comedic acting legend Leslie Neilsen. Nielsen starred in such historic comedies as "Airplane" and "The Naked Gun" TV show and series of films. Regal wrote, "Sad to hear about Leslie Nielson. I was lucky enough to be on a show with him from Universal Studios Hollywood in the mid-nineties that involved the two of us, my old friend Brian Pillman, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, and two dwarfs, one of them juggling and the other riding a unicycle. True." You can read more at RealKingRegal.com.
