Wade Barrett won the Intercontinental Championship for the first time while he was the leader of the Nexus stable in 2011. He defeated Kofi Kingston to win the belt.

He'd defeat Kofi Kingston again in 2012 to win the title for the second time. He then went on to drop the title to the Miz at WrestleMania 29 but won it back again the next night on Raw.

By the next time he'd won the title for the 4th time, he had adopted his "Bad News" Barrett persona. He defeated Big E for the belt at Extreme Rules 2014 but vacated it 2 months later due to a shoulder injury. He won it back for the 5th and final time from Dolph Ziggler in early 2015.
