3. Bad News Barrett
“Can we have some decorum, please?” The pounding of the hammer that went on a bit too long, just to annoy fans, to deliver bad news more than once a night was just fun. Barrett’s new persona allowed him to gain back the heel heat that he had lost upon being kicked out of the Nexus. This was a great way to keep Barrett on TV while he recovered from injury.
Once he recovered from injury, Barrett went on to capture the Intercontinental Championship for a fifth time from Dolph Ziggler. A rather fun twist leading to WrestleMania 31 with several Superstars stealing his title was perhaps the most memorable thing he was involved in after returning to the ring. WWE had stopped Barrett from delivering bad news, as it started to get him over as a babyface. It was fun while it lasted, though.
