Line 52:
* [[Still the Leader]]: Said this pretty much verbatim after [[CM Punk]] took over [[The Nexus]]. Punk would respond to this by costing him a shot at [[The Miz]]'s WWE championship--and ripping Barrett's Nexus armband off as an exclamation point.
* [[Tall, Dark and Snarky]]
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: Two years ago, he was a developmental talent in FCW. [[Wham! Episode|Then the NXT Riot happened.]]
** Then, after his [[Power Stable]] (s) split, he was relegated to the mid-card again for a few months. Ever since he started the "Barrett Barrage", though, he's been running roughshod over most of his competition - including tossing [[Randy Orton]] off a staircase.
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: On the NXT Season finale, he and David Otunga had 60 seconds to deliver one of these speeches to the other. Otunga would spend that time making fun of Wade's appearance, specifically his lanky body and crooked nose. Wade would deliver an epic retort centering on [[Muscles Are Meaningless|David's inability to wrestle]], stating that [[The Giant|The Great Khali]] moves around with more balance and poise than Otunga does. He would then cap off the rant blasting Otunga's "It-Factor" tag line stating that the only reason WWE promoted that is because he had absolutely no tangible qualities whatsoever, and that he could add two more letters in front of it to understand what Wade really thought of Otunga.
Line 63:
'''Barrett:''' [[Borrowed Catchphrase|Wade Wade Wade, you know it!]] }}
* [[Underwear of Power]]: He seems to be the WWE Superstar who wears those tighties ALL THE TIME. Even during backstage segments. However, he does wear a formal type of clothing whenever he is on the commentary.
** In an interview with WWE Magazine, he said he prefers trunks because that's what guys like [[Steve Austin]] & [[Dwayne Johnson|The Rock]] wore.
* [[Xanatos Gambit]]: Positioned [[John Cena]] as special guest referee in his title match against [[Randy Orton]]. If Barrett leaves as champion, Cena's freed from Nexus. If Orton does, Cena is fired.
** However, Cena [[Out-Gambitted]] him. Orton won and Cena was fired, but that merely allowed Cena to assault Nexus on a weekly basis. On top of that, Nexus already turned the security against them and when it looked like Cena was cornered by Barrett's trap, Cena revealed he had [[You and What Army?|an army of RAW superstars who hated Nexus as much as him]] ready to help him out. Then Cena proceeded to set up a [[The Dog Bites Back]] moment by tricking Barrett into pretty much saying he valued his own safety over that of Nexus, causing them to abandon him to Cena and force Barrett to hire Cena back.
