Wade Barrett as we recently reported, WWE star Wade Barrett has been off television for over a month, and was last seen getting beat by Daniel Bryan on RAW.

WWE is looking to repackage him according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, and there has been talk of giving him the Badnews Barrett gimmick like the one he does on the JBL & Cole show.

Give him a new theme. That's all he needs. Worked before

^ Agreed! His theme is ruining him, it doesn't sound motivating or "mark" worthy at all.
I was wondering what happened to him.

they should have stuck with the bare knuckle gimmick they had in mind. Him wrestling in jeans, work boots, tapped up fist. He could just beat the shit out of people and winning by KO or the ref stopping the match. Heck lose by DQ a few times because he wouldn't stop his attack.

Plenty of real bare knuckle boxers around  

he was a real one
