Stu Bennett's Ring Name

According to FCW Wrestling.com http://www.fcwwrestling.com/talent.html Stu Sanders is now wrestling under the name Stu Bennett (his real name), as opposed to his gimmick name Stu Sanders. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.47.241.20 (talk) 13:20, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that this is an error on the FCW website, and he will continue to use the name Stu Sanders. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.160.76.17 (talk) 10:38, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is an error on the FCW website. He has been announced as "Stu Sanders" at all FCW events since his arrival in Florida. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.103.223.43 (talk) 05:11, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Ring Name

He is now using the ring name Wade Barrett. Here is the link: http://www.fcwwrestling.info/talent.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.225.32.240 (talk) 20:22, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Should this page be moved to Stu Bennett?

His real name is Stu Bennett, and he is no longer using the Stu Sanders ring name (he's Wade Barrett). This page should really be Stu Bennett not Stu Sanders, right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.122.49.199 (talk) 03:10, 5 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I think so. I'll move it. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 02:03, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Finisher Name

He finally has a name for his forward fireman's carry slam. He calls it The Wasteland -- via his interview with Sky Sports http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,14204_6201004,00.html Rollinman (talk) 01:13, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nexus' theme

We should add Nexus' theme that was debuted yesterday. It's "We Are One" by 12 Stones, by the way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aguyok (talk • contribs) 16:34, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Page Move to Wade Barrett

It has been suggested at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Professional wrestling that this page be moved to Wade Barrett. Please discuss here, Thank you. Feedback ^☎ 10:43, 10 July 2010 (UTC) [reply]

Barrett move to where?

I don't believe that he moved to Smackdown to RAW. I believe there is a mistake. He, John Cena and the rest of the Nexus are making an apperiance on Smackdown on October 1st. He is still active on the RAW roster, See: http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/ and here is the video saying that he is showing up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KsO35AmxNo Misslindsie (talk) 10:19, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

I reverted some vandalism this morning, looking through the history it seems to happen quite often - I don't know how to request protection for the page though! Anyone help? BulbaThor (talk) 08:23, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Help!

I added a new section title media, because I want to make sure that it's not screwed up with his personal life. I feel that I could mess it up. Here is what I was trying to add: http://www.wwedvdnews.com/first-review-wwe-breaking-the-code-behind-the-walls-of-chris-jericho-dvd-iamjericho/4167/ and http://community.smackdownvsraw.com/blog-post/all-about-fan-axxess

These are for the Chris Jericho DVD that he is in and the New Smackdown vs. RAW game as a downloadable content. Please help me before someone screws it!Misslindsie (talk) 08:49, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is it really notable that he's in Chris Jericho's DVD? Plus a blog post is not a reliable source. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 15:43, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Can this be renamed to Wade Barrett or is too early?211.142.22.10 (talk) 22:42, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WWE TLC Aftermath

what happened to Barrett after his match against Cena in TLC? Does anyone have a statement that he has suffered injuries since being buried by multiple steel-chairs? --00raiser (talk) 08:41, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

the jackal name

where the heck wade get the name the "Jackal"? --00raiser (talk) 06:37, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think it was from the Nexus attacks. Cole would refer to The Nexus as "Jackals". Theharshtruth (talk) 21:36, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

the jackal became barretts nickname after he debut on smackdown and its because of all the atacks he has been a part of — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.165.35.243 (talk • contribs) 15:00, January 18, 2011

Theme

Shouldn't "Exploding Helmets" be added to his list of themes? Or are FCW themes not to be added to pages? Theharshtruth (talk) 21:36, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Also, why was "We are one" deleted from his list of themes? I believe it's still listen on John Cena's page as "Used while part of the Nexus". Theharshtruth (talk) 21:16, 15 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Road House

Why no mention of how his name and appearance are obviously based on Wade Garrett from this film? Ranze (talk) 01:35, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Just became Intercontinental Champ for the Raw that will air this Monday.

Bad News Barrett

Is he actually using Bad News Barrett as his ring name now, or should he still be referred to as Wade in the article's infobox and lead paragraph? -- MisterMorton (talk) 14:57, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No matter what current events are, the title and article observe the the most commonly known name of the subject. So unless he remains Bad News Barrett for years and goes onto win numerous heavyweight championships, the article will likely remain at Wade Barrett, since that is the name most people know him best as. STATic message me! 18:45, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So should the lead article be changed since his ring name is still Wade Barrett, and Bad News Barrett is just an extension of that rather than a repackaging of his entire character? -- MisterMorton (talk) 00:07, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
