Exactly, but it sounds totally awesome and foreign. Because he's not from here! He has his own customs! Look at his crazy passport!  And Kozlov. |

Make sense why he was moved to Smackdown.
It was a good way to get him from Nexus. Seriously, he was gonna have to leave them to become a true main eventer.
It would make sense though, Nexus did attack Undertaker not only once, but twice. Anybody remember the 900th episode when Nexus also attacked Undertaker. Than at Bragging Right's Nexus attacked Undertaker during the Buried Alive Match.
Maybe the "Bigguh Pictauh" was to take out the most repected, and dominate, veteran of all time, The Undertaker.
Only this time, Barret has no help from Nexus.
I would be truely shocked if they don't start a Undertaker-Barret storyline. Just seems to make so much sense with his move to Smackdown.

Going ONE ON ONE WITH THA BARRUH doesn't have the same ring to it.

Yes! This could be good. Wade just needs a convincing finisher.

Barrett has stated once in his interview to EuroSport that he's a huge fan of Davey Boy Smith and 'Taker, and would like to work with UT.

I'm sorry......
I don't like the idea of Barrett ending the streak, and sadly Taker's at the stage in his career that there's a definite possibility of that happening.
I just don't see ending the streak benefiting anyone in any major way. I mean it's like turning Hogan heel, Slamming Andre The Giant, and The Rock returning.....if you don't do it EXACTLY right you don't get to do it again.
The Guy he puts over needs to basically be THE GUY that the WWE is going to push for years to come, and right now....I don't see Barrett as "That Guy". Hell.....the writers and bookers basically have had THE angle that could have skyrocketed him to a title for what? 6-8 Months Now? And what did they do? Nothing.....they fed him to Cena and Orton, used 9 other Guys to prop him up (Not saying he's not talented, but what is Nexus apart from his/Punk's lackeys now, I'm just sayng it Elevated barrett at the expense of the other members) and moved him to SmackDown to put him in what appears to be a program with Big Show.
Ah Yes.....The Big Show......
I Like The Big Show...very much, I think he's great at what he does, but in all honesty.....he's the proverbial Third Man. He hasn't actually HELD a World Title since his 2006 ECW title run, and yet he keeps finding himself in the World Title Picture. He's still seen as an obstacle...but to me, he's lost a bit of his luster due to him being treated as a secondary threat rather than a 7 foot tall 500lb Behemoth.

Barrett possibly ending the Streak?
I like that idea more than I really should.

I don't get why people exaggeate the accent anyway. Barrett is pretty well spoken and fairly easy to understand. So we can photoshop Barrett standing next to increasingly gigantic pitchers. |

Barrett has 0% chance of ending the streak. The only way he won any matches on Raw was with the help of 6 other men. He has yet to prove he can beat anyone above a midcarder without a run in, so he is certainly not the guy to end the streak. Taker will probably put him over on a lesser PPV, but that's about it.

I wouldnt be surprised if this was true. If Taker is healthy for Mania, I wouldnt mind seeing Barrett take him for 20 minutes to the wire, and Taker prevail.

The correct answer to this question is: This just sounds like them going well taker was last seen when Barrett and hte Nexus helped bury him... and Barrett's on Smackdown now... so let's just make an educated guess that they will feud at some point. |

Taker's old school. He knows that his streak is worthless when he's retired. I'm not saying he'll put Barrett over at 'Mania but it's not out of the question. After all, he's a veterain of the territories where you were expected to leave a company on your back so that somebody still there can benefit from it. The streak isn't worthless when he's retired. The WWE could make some serious bank on a 20-0 DVD, which I still believe is what they're going for now. And it's not the territory days any more. We're not in 1985, and the need to put someone over on your way to the next territory is long gone. There are tons of ways to put new talent over these days without doing it "on your back". Undertaker put Jeff Hardy over HUGE in that ladder match, even though Undertaker was the winner. Mick Foley was boosted to virtually legendary status as a result of his feud with Undertaker, even though Undertaker won a majority of the important matches. By contrast, Undertaker lost to Koslov clean and was on the wrong end of a squash match vs. Khali. It didn't exactly do wonders for their careers. And on a personal note, I see nothing wrong with allowing a man who has been one of the consistently top draws, top performers, top merchandise sellers, and overall top "company men" -- a man who also, by the way, stuck around when everybody was jumping ship to the big paydays WCW was offering -- to retire with the streak intact as a way of saying "Thank you". There is absolutely zero evidence that the WWE or any of the wrestlers in it would be harmed in any way, the WWE could make some money off a 20-0 DVD, and people have made numerous arguments saying that ending the streak would end up doing more harm than good. |

Barrett doesn't need to feud against Taker at Mania, feuding with him is just enough to get "the rub". Although, I'd love to see Barrett(champion) feud with Taker.
