Honestly, the United Kingdom stable that was in the WWE '12 game is the most interesting thing they could possibly do with him. Right now, and even before, the man just bores me to tears. He just doesn't connect with the fans and that's just simply because the company has given them no reason to care about him. So what if he's a former bare knuckle fighter? He doesn't do anything to show that he was other than Michael Cole mentioning it every 10 seconds. And the fact that he's using an elbow smash finisher shows nothing of that either.

If you take Sin Cara off that list and insert Seth Rollins I'd agree with you. Cara's a disaster in WWE imo. He only needed some time to "fit" to the WWE (and american) in ring style. Now they put Mysterio mentoring him and we can see great things in ring from Sin Cara. He doesn't even botch anymore. But let's talk about Barrett. How many times the WWE gave him opportunities? The Nexus, the top storyline for 6 months in 2010, all the spotlights on him. How many great (or even good) matches we remember from him? Zero. The Corre. The chance to dominate Smackdown, a "land of opportunities". Failure. Brought in single competition: memorable moments? In short, I can't remember a good match (not even a 7/10 match) or a great promo that can make me say "wow, I remember him for this promo/match". He's annoying, the arenas are silent during his matches, he creates no hype. And this should be a main eventer? |

I thought Barrett's matches with Sheamus were fantastic. I thought he was gonna be propelled into the title picture after that, but after Big Show took the belt and Barrett lost to Orton on Monday I wonder what's next.

He's been booked terribly. Waste of talent. Waste of talent? CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Kassius Ohno, Antonio Cesaro, Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, Cody Rhodes, Sin Cara. They are talented. Surely not Barrett. Wade Barrett is just as good as Cody Rhodes and much better than Sin Cara. I'm not sure Sin Cara has had one good match since he came to WWE, and let's not even mention charisma or cutting promos. Wade is far superior. Cody is better in the ring than Wade but Barrett is better promo-wise. Both of them are good. As for Ziggler, Punk and Bryan well they're a different class. Just because they're talented doesn't mean Wade isn't. I haven't seen enough of Ambrose and Ohno to make a fair assessment. |

He's annoying, the arenas are silent during his matches, he creates no hype. And this should be a main eventer? Yes, Wade was leader of the Nexus. And he did great work. He got good heat and was an awesome talker. No good matches? His match with Cena from HIAC was very good. He didn't exactly get many match opportunities did he? In fact, can you name any good Nexus matches? You'll struggle. The Corre, "the chance to dominate SmackDown"? LMAO. You're kidding me right? The Corre was dead from day  ing one. They were made to look like losers and got their asses kicked all the time. I don't know how you can say that was a good opportunity for Wade. Wade has been out for six months, so that's six months' worth of potential good matches lost right there. His matches with Sheamus, Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton have been great. The arena is silent during his matches because WWE have done absolutely nothing with him since he returned almost 2 months ago. WWE make him look unimportant, so should the fans care? And you're trying to use Sin Cara in this argument? Ahahahaha. Even with Mysterio as his tag partner, he can't get a reaction. And he's a face. And how many good matches of his can you name? Or good promos? And that makes a star?  |

You were the one who tried to claim Sin Cara is better than Wade Barrett. And I already listed several good matches he's had. As for promos, pretty much anything he said during the Nexus was great. |

And Sin Cara is like a legend in Mexico, but it seems that for you he can't wrestle and is the worst on the WWE roster. But you're right, we've got the great Wade Barrett, with a lot of fantastic matches in his WWE career and a briliant future, he's destined to greatness like Triple H, The Rock, Stone Cold and many others. On the other side we've got Sin Cara, just a big jerk who can't wrestle. Maybe Triple H was totally out of his mind when he wanted Mistico to join the WWE. |

His matches with Sheamus have been fantastic. He needs more mic time and as mentioned, should have been the one to take the belt.
But if he keeps performing at that high level, he'll get his time to shine.

They haven't let him stay in his new character at all, and that's what's ruining it for me. He's supposed to be a tough street fighter; for the time being I think he should always either win his matches or lose by blatant disqualification on purpose and beat up his opponents anyway. I like this idea....he loses due to excessive force, until he is given solid competition and a true opportunity. Well done! |

Barrett is doing fine.
He had a good series with Sheamus and has become a regular on Raw every week.
His time will come.

He was made early this year with a good look, great theme song, and big rivalry. Now that he's back, he's levels below where he was before his injury.
