He needs to be in matches. He really doesn't. Everybody is in pointless matches all the time, and Barrett has wrestled everyone a million times. The longer he is on his podium banging a gavel, the more it builds anticipation for him to have a match and get his ass kicked by somebody. The last thing he needs is to be thrown straight back into the midcard rematch cycle. And that made me hate matches now.

Honestly, I hated it at first, but it's growing on me. I just wish he didn't draw as much cheap heat and added a little something else.

BNB is everything that's wrong with WWE. Imagine a world where Barrett, Ziggler, Swagger, Miz, Cody and Titus were all legit threats for a title shot.

I like a few of those guys but Cody and Titus as legit title threats? Laughable in the case of the WWE title. I'm not saying they're not talented, especially Cody, but he's nothing on the mic and soaks up the leftover charisma off his brother... actually out of these guys only Barrett and Ziggler should be in that conversation for anything more than the IC title.

I resent that they always make British talent pompous. Regal, McIntyre for example. Barrett is a capable wrestler who deserves more than this... McIntyre is Scottish. Never call a Scotsman and Englishman I never called him English, I called them British. To be British you gotta be from Northern Ireland, England, Wales or indeed Scotland!

Nope. British is English, Scottish or Welsh. Northern Ireland is not in Britain. It is in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Northern Ireland is not in Britain. It is in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Well actually?! 50% of people from Northern Ireland will identify themselves as British most of them will be Protestant, 50% will identify as Irish and they will mostly be Catholic. In Northern Ireland you have 2 community's - Irish & Ulster. Northern Ireland is part of the UK and as part of the UK its inhabitants (myself included) are British Nationals... Both community's have been fighting for 100years & the "UK and northern Ireland is diplomacy to keep both sides happy" How would I get a British passport if I wasn't considered British?! -.- But anyway think were getting abit of track so back to the point that still stands I never called a Scotsman an Englishman! ^-^

It's probably the worst gimmick he's had so far. Is he ever going to wrestle?

Nope. Jerry Lawler said he was going to be getting fired soon on RAW. So I guess that's, that.

It's hit or miss with me. I've giggled a few times from it, but other times I've just felt kind of sorry for Barrett.
Wade Barrett in his current state is a direct result of WWE not pulling the trigger on him in 2010. The guy has never been as interesting as he was leading the Nexus. He was spectacular in such a high profile role so early on in his career and they haven't figured out what to do with him since.
I'm mostly just waiting for the moment when they can transition the character into a wrestling role though. He feels like a weekly segment on a radio show versus a pro wrestler right now. Not saying it can't build steam but I'm not seeing him get enough reaction from this to really catapult him into a feud or a position that people care about. I don't know what the hell Jerry Lawler was even saying to him last night. Maybe I missed the joke. This honestly feels like it's all leading to the Great Khali coming out to face Barrett if I'm honest. I just think it's meant to be taken at face value and it's really kind of a half baked idea that people probably laugh at backstage more than anything else.

Seriously, what the hell was that? And that was the worst BNB segment yet. This is getting worst and worst.
