Well, the good news is that it's now on TV. The bad news is that it's now on tv.
Yup.

Was someone misinformed about Bad News Brown and they just ran with it?

When will Barrett start calling everyone "Beer Bellied Sharecroppers"?

Needs more random interruption during live matches/segments. And have no commentator question his presents.

I just recently watched the youtube stuff. So, he's like Just Joe now? Just telling random people "bad news"? Too bad it's not a Bad News Brown-like "I have no friends, only enemies" gimmick.

I did see a .gif of it and it looked funny. Then I heard he talked about constipation.

FILLER FILLER FILLER. DON'T YOU JUST LOVE FILLER?! Sang that to the tune of EC3's theme in my head. As for Barrett, just fire him already. Please.

He should've just reminded us that Cena vs. Orton is main eventing TLC. Now that's some bad news.

I give this horribly pointless gimmick a month tops.

Barrett is awesome. This gimmick (so far) is not. If they're going to make him do this, can he at least dress up like a Towne Crier? Bell and all.

The #BadNewsBarrett stamp at the end of the segments reminded me of Married With Children.
So, it's got that going for it...

I just want to see him wrestle. I've got some bad news, he probably won't.

This was one of the most awkward and ridiculous segments I've seen on Raw in a long time. This segment alone made me turn off the show. Terrible.

This man has been repackaged so many times it's ridiculous. Seriously this is getting outrageous.
Started out as a suave cocky Brit with a cool coat.
Became the leader of a revolt and slave owner during the Cena feud.
Became generic heel wearing t-shirts to the ring.
Went back to being suave, cocky Brit with cool coat.
Back to generic heel in t-shirts.
Becomes a bare knuckle fighter.
Back to generic heel.
Becomes jobber.
Now he's Just Joe 2013 giving out bad news.
On top of that he's gone through 500 entrance themes within a few months. They have no idea what they want to do with this man. I can see him getting released within a couple of years. I've never seen anyone booked so poorly in terms of consistency. He has absolutely NO identity at this point. His gimmick is that he can't find a gimmick.
How long before he's doing wrestler impersonations and strictly doing comedy bits like Charlie Haas, or getting a dancing gimmick? It's bound to happen.

The repeated mishandling of Wade Barrett is prime example of how stupid WWE really is.

This writing team needs a bull hammer to the face. How the f*** can you not book a guy with a presence like WADE BARRETT? He'd be better off growing a big beard and joining the Wyatts than being saddled with this for a few months (surely with a music change or two) and moving back to dark matches.

Whichever member of creative came up with this crap should lose their job...
Can it really be that hard to give a decent gimmick for Barrett?
Personally, I'd make him a one man APA with a bodyguard gimmick. Hiring himself out to the highest bidder and neither face nor heel. One week he's protecting Truth and Woods. The next he's beating them down after getting paid more by Tons of Funk.
