wwe smackdownBad News Barrett Talks CM Punk

Bad News Barrett was the latest guest on Talk Is Jericho with Chris Jericho, and the subject of Barrett teasing a CM Punk return came up. 

Barrett said they wanted to give the fans a good ‘surprise’ during WWE’s 2014 return to Chicago, Punk’s hometown. Original plans had been in place for Punk’s entrance theme to cue up, but Barrett would come out instead and do his ‘bad news’ routine.

Regarding the plans, Barrett said, “It was in the script until about thirty minutes before the show and they pulled it. I think Paul Heyman ended up doing something similar. I didn’t have a storyline angle or important angle at that time, and Heyman and Brock did.”

Barrett also said it probably would have been in bad taste to do the angle as planned, and eventhough it wasn’t a good way to get heat it could have been hilarious. To listen to the full episode of Talk Is Jericho, click here
