ESPN’s WWE “Off The Top Rope” Recap; Wade Barrett Talks About Wayne Rooney Slapping Him, Does He Think LeBron James Is A Real King?

Bad_News_Barrett_IC_Champion_Jan_2015The following is the WWE Off The Top Rope Recap from tonight’s ESPN segment featuring host Jonathan Coachman and guest King Barrett.

King Barrett joins the show and Coach goes right to the slap from Rooney, and he asks Barrett if the slap was real and what happened. Wade talks about Rooney’s accomplishments in football, then says it’s the first time a fan, let alone a huge English celebrity like Rooney making it a huge moment.

Wade talks about getting into WWE after being a fighter, then Coach asks about Wade being a huge Chicago Bears (American) football fan. Wade says he probably would have been a football player if he’d been born somewhere besides England, then they talk about Wade winning the first season of NXT. He says he started the ball rolling and the current NXT wouldn’t be as big if not for him. Coach asks him about leaving home and returning with WWE to perform in front of the home crowd, and Wade says it’s been great because he’s the King of the Ring and the King of the world.

Coach stops him and says LeBron James is a King here in the US, so Wade says he won a tournament, but LeBron just took a name and he is nothing to pay attention to. Coach says with that, he has some bad news, and the interview is over, then thanks Barrett and congratulates The Rock on his birth announcement from earlier in the day.
