The Blue Bloods The Blue Bloods was the name of the professional wrestling stable in World Championship Wrestling that consisted of " Lord " Steven Regal , " Earl " Robert Eaton , and " Squire " David Taylor , along with their butler Jeeves , that operated in the middle to late 1990s . In 2006 , Regal ( with his ring name changed to William ) and Taylor reunited as a tag team on the SmackDown brand of World Wrestling Entertainment , without the " Blue Blood " name . In May 2002 , Taylor , Regal and Irish wrestler Dave Finlay opened the Atlanta Blue Bloods Wrestling Academy , a professional wrestling school . The Academy closed in 2005 , after having trained wrestlers such as Chris Hero . History . World Championship Wrestling . The Blue Bloods were formed in 1995 in World Championship Wrestling ( WCW ) by Regal after he split with his manager , Sir William and became a tag team wrestler . Regal recruited Alabama - born Bobby Eaton , getting him ( kayfabe ) " knighted " to rename him " Earl Robert Eaton " and taking it upon himself to teach Eaton the finer points of the British lifestyle ; including the Queen ' s English and proper dining etiquette . The team feuded with Harlem Heat ( Booker T and Stevie Ray ) and the team of Bunkhouse Buck and Dick Slater over the WCW World Tag Team Championship but never got their hands on the titles . Soon they were joined by " Squire " David Taylor and a butler named Jeeves whom they openly abused . Eaton eventually left the group , leaving Taylor and Regal to feud with him . Taylor and Regal continued to team together until Regal was released from WCW in 2000 , at which point Taylor also left the promotion . World Wrestling Entertainment . Regal went to the World Wrestling Federation ( WWF ) and by 2001 , Taylor joined him in the company , acting as a trainer and wrestler in the Heartland Wrestling Association , a subsidiary of the WWF for a brief period before leaving the company . In January 2006 , Taylor was hired by World Wrestling Entertainment to train wrestling students in their Deep South Wrestling ( DSW ) training territory , and on March 23 returned to the DSW ring to team with former partner Regal . Meanwhile , Regal was being mocked and made to look foolish on " SmackDown ! " . On the October 20 episode he announced that he was sick of being a " laughing stock " on the brand and re - introduced the national audience to Taylor , who was joining him as a tag team partner . The two debuted as a team the same night , defeating the team of Scotty 2 Hotty and Funaki easily . Though they had reunited , they used no parts of their previous " Blue Bloods " gimmick , instead becoming sadistic fighters , willing to go to just about any lengths for a win . The team was quickly put into jeopardy , however , when in their second match Taylor suffered a ( legitimate ) torn meniscus in his left knee , leaving him injured and on the shelf for a number of weeks . Unable to wrestle , Taylor took a more relaxed role as something of a cornerman for Regal until he healed enough to wrestle again . While he was out , Regal began the opening stages of a feud with the WWE Tag Team Champions , Paul London and Brian Kendrick , by defeating both men in singles matches , and upon Taylor ' s return , they beat the champions in non - title tag team competition . Having proven their worth , they earned a title shot at December ' s Armageddon pay - per - view , but just beforehand it was changed to a fatal - four way ladder match also involving MNM ( Joey Mercury and Johnny Nitro ) and The Hardys ( Matt and Jeff ) , in which London and Kendrick retained their titles . In a subsequent regular tag rematch on " SmackDown ! " Regal and Taylor came up short of winning the titles . The team split when Regal was selected by Raw in the supplemental draft on June 17 , 2007 .
