Would love to hear about his Summerslam tag team match against Stephen Amell.

Love how he takes the time to make a point of explaining why Wayne Rooney was justified in being concerned about appearing on tv, the risk of being embarrassed, etc. Wade Battett is a class act

Roy Keane was furious with Rooney after that appearance

Wade’s got a voice I could listen to for hours. Awesome story teller, like JR and Paul Heyman.

Can't not love this fella, oozes charisma. It's a crime that he was never (and the first English) WWE champion! Grrr Cena!

@@OfficialFingazMC He might have. I'd pretty much stopped watching wrestling regularly by that time, and I suppose Cena does bear a fair amount of the blame. He was the top guy bringing in all the money spent on birthday presents for the coveted little kid demographic. What was Vince going to do if Cena refused to go along with burying every fresh new talent that came along, and actually stuck out his neck for them? Fire him?

This story just looks more weird with time. Now I can say Wade Barrett got slapped out by a former derby county manager live on Monday night raw

I love Wade, I wish he had a bigger push during WWE and found a better finisher. He's amazing on the mic, talking here and in the commentary box, love that he's now with Cole on Smackdown

Everytime i look at wade barret i always feel about the nexus. That group could have been one of the most dominant.

Man looking back he was such a amazing talent in wwe so smart about everything it's such a shame him and wwe didn't get along

I hope Triple H kept an eye on Giggsy around Stephanie. And I thought that if Rooney wanted to meet anyone from the attitude era it would be Mae Young.🤣

glory glory man united

What a good dude!!

Great story very switched on man 🤌

He is so FINE

Bro did a will smith

Love that story, can't wait till you get back in the ring and become champion, it's so long overdue

I was there when this happened & it was a very split reaction from the live crowd, which will be no surprise to anyone from the UK.

Jus' saying. Liverpool's 1 championship off drawing Man U's record. And for some F'ed up reason, I have a soft spot for Gillingham XD

I hoped he would say that he was trending in Antarctica...

Idk if anyone else thinks so and before I play the blame game I am a cena fan, however with that being said. I think cena was the demise of Barrett and the rest of the nexus. They where on a major roll and than cena came along and made them lose all credibility. From that point on it was all downhill for all of them . I know the argument that’s not true bray wyatt is doing well . Here the thing bray repackaged himself and became something really exciting. Had he stuck with husky Harris he would have disappeared just like brother Bo

Sometimes it’s bad luck unfortunately. He was supposed to win the money in the bank but his injuries interrupted his momentum.

It was the worst slap ever

🇳🇬 🇳🇬🇳🇬😂

Wayne Rooney? Let's see... Joey Abs, Pete Gas, Rodney Gas... Nope. 🤷

Lol can someone enlighten me on when a Scottish team has achieved anything that will compare to Wayne Rooney 😅😂 it will never happen

I sincerely hope Wade Barrett is kept on as a Smackdown commentator and they don't give the job back to Pat McAfee. I never thought it was possible that a commentator could be so bad that they ruin a wrestler's entrance but he managed to do it to Shinsuke Nakamura time and time again. Plus, Wade Barrett actually has a way with words and doesn't say things like, "He stole that victory... like a snake... in the desert." Wtf does that even mean?! Lol

Waid sucks

Wade says he was aprofessional wrestler... and on wwe... but was he? does anyone remeber him at all?
