I don't if anyone has mentioned this but Wade Barrett "to me anyways" reminds me of the Blackadder. Here are some pics   For those who don't know who the Blackadder is. The Blackadder is Rowan Atkinson in full on Heel mode. Before he turned Babyface and started calling himself Mr. Bean. Now in my opinion the Blackadder was Atkinson at his LMFAO best. I encourage anyone here to check it out if you haven't. He punks around Dr. House all the time on that show. |

Well, Barrett's cunning plans do always backfire on him...

He sounds like "double miles on every purchase" guy in the capital one commercials.

In particular, I'd say he's the Blackadder 2 version. They're both dripping with class and sarcasm, even more so than the other eras, and always seem like the smartest person in the room even when they don't get the best outcomes. (Cena = Flashheart?)

Wade: Get me the Raw title, Darren.
[There is a crash. Darren Young enters, carrying the Raw logo.]
Wade: Darren, I would advise you to make the explanation you are about to give... phenomenally good.
Darren: You said "Get the Raw title."
Wade: Not good enough. You're fired.
Darren: But Wade, I've been in the Nexus since the first season of NXT!
Wade: So has syphilis! Now get out!
[After Harris and McGillicutty interfere on Wade's behalf when Nexus is banned from ring-side and allow him to beat Cena]
Cena: Do you know those men?
Wade: [looking behind him for another man] No.
Cena: He called you Wade.
Wade: Oh, know him! Oh yes, I do.
Cena: Then can you explain what he meant by "Your plan worked, yup?"
[Very long pause, as Wade thinks]
Wade: [haltingly] Yes, I can. My friends are missionaries... And on their last visit abroad... Brought back with them the chief of a famous tribe... His name is Ur Planorked... He's been suffering from sleeping sickness... And he's obviously just woken... Because, as you heard, "Ur Planorked's up."
Tarver: Perhaps a motto for our enterprise? "Blessed are the meek..."
[The rest grumble in disagreement.]
Tarver: "... for they shall be slaughtered!"
[The rest cheer and rush for the door.]
Wade: But the plan! You've forgotten the plan!
Sheffield: I thought that was the plan!
Slater: Let's get those meek bastards now!

If someone doesn't beat me to it, I'll have to make up lyrics to the tune of Blackadder in referencing Barrett.

DiBiase Sr.: Well, in cases such as this, it's customary for the groom to marry the bridesmaid. I presume you intend to honour this?
Gabriel: I do!
Barrett: Were you ever bullied at school?
Cena: What do you mean?
Barrett: I mean, all this ranting and raving about 'never give up'. There must be some reason for it.
Cena: Nonsense. No, at my school, having dirty hair and spots was a sign of maturity.
Barrett: I thought so! And I bet your mother made you wear jean shorts all the way through your career-
Cena: Aw, come on Wade! Shut up! When I'm WWE Champion, no one will ever dare call me "Shorty-Greasy-Spot-Spot" again!
EDIT: And a quick theme tune, I'm sure we could get a whole series worth, mind.
So Cena foiled Wade Barrett's plan,
For now, he won't be the Raw Champ-ion,
But it may well happen someday,
To attract markets European!
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett,
He had the Viper beat,
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett,
'Till Cena tried to cheat!
John Cena, John Cena,
Well now he's got the sack,
John Cena, John Cena,
Beats scrubbing Barrett's back!

He walks alone across the glade
He once splashed John Cena with water
Beware the Nexus leader Wade
Or he'll give the Wastleland to your daughter
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett, he kept Cena from being freed
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett, he's very bad indeed
Wade: he's ragged on by Michael Cole
Wade: his theme is not quite metal
His first WWE Championship is his goal
His Wasteland, matches never settle
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett, with many an cunning plan
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett, you horrid little man

OK, here's my efforts. Probably not as great as I hoped, but figured I'd show it.
The sound of drumbeats in the air.
Beware, The Nexus is now in town
Their leader, he has quite a flair
For masterminding a big beat-down
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett
His arrogance is grand
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett
He'll hit you with Wasteland
Black, his shirt adorned with 'N'
His face, adorned with evil grin
When he goes for gold once again
Be sure, that he is going to win
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett
Success he'll one day see
Wade Barrett, Wade Barett
You smug Brit S.O.B.!

Going back in time a bit for this one:
The company's next breakout star,
Regal knew he would be the winner,
It seems his career will go far,
Quite good for only a beginner.
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett,
Otunga mocked his nose,
Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett,
But real talent shows!
NXT, NXT,
Never as good again,
NXT, NXT,
Drove Michael cole insane...

No of cause not Baldrick was loveable.

I'd say Otunga is Percy, and Gabriel would be Baldrick (putting aside the vast differences in hygiene between them). Percy always set himself up as the second in command, but was rather useless, while Baldrick ended up somewhat more helpful.
And really, there's no better way to describe Otunga than 'a lump of purest green'.
