After successive defeats to R-Truth and being made to look like a chump in the process, King Barrett was desperately in need of a win to escape the pit of ridiculousness he has found himself in since winning the King Of The Ring tournament. Zack Ryder was only too willing to oblige him, and Barrett finally managed to pick up a victory with that Royal Bullhammer. It doesn't really mean a whole lot, however. If Barrett had lost, especially to Long Island Iced-Z, his reign as King would have descended even further into farce. He didn't lose, but victory against someone so low on the totem pole doesn't do anything to improve Barrett's standings. Still, it could stop the rot - the question now is whether Barrett can kick on from here.
As a long-time WWE fan, I have always enjoyed watching men pretend to beat each other up while wearing spandex. Extra points for facepaint, none for tassels.
I love all things sci-fi. If there's a 'Star' somewhere in the title, I'll probably dig it.
I'm a huge football fan too. For my sins, I support Manchester United.
