Yeah, but the way that he throws it is horrible though. Especially if you've seen Chris Hero throw worked elbow strikes (it helps that Hero has some boxing training).

I actually liked the ripcord version better than the stupid running version that he has now, which completely exposes that he doesn't know how to throw an elbow.

But, then again, anything is better than Wasteland. :scusthov:

Lol this is true.

c/s, I'm happy wasteland is relegated to regular move set status, I remember him doing it to the Undertaker during the Nexus beat down and they tried to sell it like it was devastating, and all could do is :childplease:

He needs to run with the moniker of "Boss" Barrett and always keep a crew running with him...his leadership should be his strong suit due to his way of words and powerful voice

Having him by himself makes no sense considering how he came onto fame with the Nexus, but WWE booking can destroy anybody :wow:

Now he's in the wasteland

This sums it up. The man is a natural heel stable leader, and they took that away from him. He's been floundering ever since.

He is generic as they come, a lot of that has to do with the way he is booked though. But as of right now, nothing about him stands out.

Did Truth ever get a title match against Wade? He beat him a few weeks ago in a nontitle match, but I don't remember if a title match came out of it.

I'm English which should probably mean that I should be a huge mark for Barrett but I can't stand him. Average on the mic and in the ring - brings nothing new to the table ever.

:ufdup: at anyone saying he's 'solid' on the mic.

The music is there, the mic skills is there, and he has the character potential. They need to really build his cred up as a bare knuckle fighter, I'd have him filming Vigettes of him in bars or in underground fight arenas knocking people out. Make him ditch the robe and have him come out more rugged. Wife beater, tapped fist jeans and all.

They had potential with Regal and Barrett, You had two tough bare knuckle dudes and it would have been perfect giving Barrett stripes with that type of feud. Instead what do these idiots do? Make it a squash match. The whole creative team need to be thrown in the bushes

After cena dropped multiple stacks of chairs on him,...
He was done.

He was closer to being done when he never beat cena and miz got to cash in.

He's a big guy and Vince loves that. He's also worked for the company in multiple roles.

The Winds of Change, his springboard back breaker, turnbuckle powerbomb demeanor and mic skills are the appeal of Wade Barrett

That's Boss Barrett show him some respect :birdman:
