4 WWE Stars Who Should Go To NXT & 4 Stars To Replace Them

8. Bad News Barrett

Currently written off of WWE TV to film a movie, it's likely that Barrett may be out for a few months. The timing couldn't have been better for him. The King Barrett gimmick didn't work, as WWE booked the character very poorly. At one point he was feuding with R-Truth, who was parading around as his own version of a king?

If he is gone awhile, WWE can not let him return only to feud with Stardust (who is responsible for his absence), it will lead nowhere. Why not have him reemerge on WWE TV, down on NXT? There are many directions they could take his character.

If they want him to reappear in the more comedic role of Bad News Barrett, which worked for him before the King Barrett character, Full Sail will enjoy it. If they want his character to be more serious, they could show him front row in the crowd at Full Sail, scouting certain matches. Have Barrett recruit 2 or 3 young heel talents, who he is looking to take with him up to the main roster to form a new stable.  This is a role he is familiar with as the former leader of Nexus.

This could be a completely new booking angle for the WWE, and a great way to not only introduce Barrett back to RAW, but new NXT stars as well.
