Wade Barrett, Take 3... Totally with Stop on this one. No reason to stop his last push the way they did + wonder if there's any way the casuals can care about him after all the damage that's been done.

Maybe you can give him a gimmick of "a guy who takes a microphone and talks into it". That's good enough.

Oh yes, I was thinking about this last night and then again this morning. Wade should be a "Vince McMahon guy", like Orton is a "Triple H guy", he can be apart of the Corporation. I've made a scenario that'd change things up: At Battleground, Wade Barrett returns during the Bryan-Orton match and when Bryan is about to beat Orton, Barrett interferes and takes out Bryan. The WWE Championship remains vacant, and at the next RAW, Barrett explains that Vince told him to go out there. Orton comes out, pissed, but Barrett tells him that he "failed to impress, to dominate" and now Vince doesn't believe in him. Bryan then comes out and after a confrontation, it's official. Bryan vs Orton vs Barrett at Hell in a Cell. Barrett wins and Triple H slowly begins to try to get rid of Vince.

This sets up Survivor Series.

Team Bryan: Daniel Bryan, Rob Van Dam, Dolph Ziggler, Cody Rhodes, Goldust
vs
Team Corporation: Wade Barrett, Randy Orton, Triple H, Dean Ambrose, Damien Sandow

Big Show, Kofi Kingston, Zack Ryder, Sin Cara
vs
Damien Sandow, Alberto Del Rio, Fandango, Big E Langston

The Shield vs The Prime Time Players vs The Real Americans vs Los Matadores (for Tag Team titles)
Brie Bella vs AJ Lee vs Natalya (for Diva's title)
Curtis Axel vs Ryback vs CM Punk (for the Intercontinental Championship)
Brothers of Destruction vs Wyatt Family

So not only do we get the big traditional Survivor Series match between Team Bryan and Team Corporation, but I think a 4-on-4 elimination match could work between some of the midcard to lowercard guys that have the potential to be involved. Big Show can turn heel at the start of the match, knocking out his entire team before Big E turns face, taking out Show. Big E joins the face team and Big Show joins the heel team. The PTP are being built up as a face force to challenge the Shield, could they finally claim the titles? I also think that CM Punk should be apart of one final Heyman match before moving onto the main event feud. Kane and Undertaker could return soon so they should fight the Wyatt Family in a 2-on-3 handicap match.

... Did I just make predictions for Survivor Series in a Barrett thread? Seems legit.

Barrett is a bad ass. He's a shooter for one, he has charisma for two, and I don't know... well for three he's got the ever-important MAIN EVENT BULGE. I think they should give him a new finisher though if they're going to be debuting Kassius Ohno. No offense to Wade, but Ohno needs that elbow finish. He is kind of the gaijin heir to Misawa's elbow so yeaaaaah.... can you come in on Saturday?

I think they should hire some guys that would let Barrett legitimately punch them in the face to really get over as a brawler. He could go to town on some local dudes with shoot punches, like Clint Eastwood in fuckin' Any Which Way But Loose.
