Wade Barrett takes shot at former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre

Wade Barrett is still angry about WWE's decision not to make him the champion during his stint in the company. The winner of the first-ever NXT season believes he should have become the first British WWE champion.

While speaking with WWE India, Wade Barrett added he felt bad for the WWE fans from Great Britain. He claims he does not feel bad for not winning the championship and believes it is a disgrace that Drew McIntyre is the first-ever WWE Champion from the UK. He said:

Will John Cena beat Ric Flair's record? A former WCW Champion thinks so HERE

"A lot of people got very excited when he became the first-ever British WWE Champion. For me, it is an absolute disgrace. It is an outrage. Everybody on the planet knows it should have been me quite clearly. I had plenty of opportunities that were taken away from me, but ultimately, it's not me I feel bad for. I'm not worried about me. I'm worried about the fans, the Great British fans of WWE."
"It's the fans who were cheated. So clearly there should be protests, there should be riots, there should be bedlam and it's an absolute disgrace that Drew McIntyre will forever be the first ever WWE Champion from The Great Britain."

Wade Barrett is currently the voice of NXT, while Drew McIntyre is set to battle Bobby Lashley at Hell In A Cell on Sunday.
