1* When Barrett changed his theme to the... ''divisive'' song "Just Don't Care Anymore", many took to his Twitter to express how much they disliked it. After awhile, Barrett got annoyed and tweeted that the next person who told him his theme sucked [[DisproportionateRetribution was going to get blocked]]. [[TemptingFate It didn't take long for]] [[http://twitter.com/#!/Justin__Gabriel/statuses/164798899503104000 someone to respond.]]
2* In a video he took for WWE.com using a stolen camera (that someone "left lying around"), he went and asked some questions to the various members of the WWE locker room. One of them was Wrestling/ZackRyder, who was asked how it feels to have the second most popular WWE web show. Barrett's response when asked what the first was?
3-->'''Barrett:''' Wade Wade Wade, you know it!
4* Barrett interrupts a Wrestling/TripleH promo. Triple H reacts with a [[GroinAttack swift boot to Barrett's junk.]] When his match starts against Wrestling/TheMiz, Miz's first non-strike technique [[GenreSavvy just happens]] to be an inverted atomic drop. Toward the end of the match, Barrett tries to go with the big boot. Miz slips out of the way, resulting in Barrett [[GroinAttack getting hung up on the top rope.]]
5** The follow-ups were hilarious as well. First was a short Tout (by someone else) of Barrett in the locker room, wailing in pain with a massive bag of ice on his groin. Even later, he send out a tweet saying that he swelling had finally went down and to rest assured that both of his "plums" were still there.
6* In a backstage segment not 6 days away from ''Wrestling/MoneyInTheBank 2013'', himself, Zeb Colter, Wrestling/JackSwagger, [[Wrestling/ClaudioCastagnoli Antonio Cesaro]], Wrestling/CodyRhodes, Wrestling/DamienSandow and Wrestling/{{Fandango}} are all present. Fandango then tries to perform his SayMyName schtick even though Barrett and Colter warn him not to. He tries to do it anyway, [[KilledMidSentence only for Barrett to clock him mid-sentence]]. Rhodes and Sandow found this highly amusing.
7* Being hired as a barber by Wrestling/VinceMcMahon to try to shave Wrestling/DanielBryan's beard, only to have the tables turned on him.
8* His Bad News Barrett segments on the JBL & Cole Show.
9* [[http://www.wwe.com/videos/bad-news-barrett-attempts-to-deliver-some-good-news-26185770 Bad News Barrett tries to deliver some good news.]]
10* [[https://31.media.tumblr.com/106df91916c3c89e769da0348a026c63/tumblr_nwuwh7eZ9x1rnjfjfo1_r1_400.gif This gif]] in particular after a victory, from the totally {{unnecessary combat roll}} to being [[TheGlomp glomped]] by [[Wrestling/RusevAndLana Rusev]].
11* He was a part of the infamous [[https://youtu.be/eOm_a8XcYsk "WHERE IS THAT REFEREE? HE WAS TRYNA FUCK ON ME!"]] match that [[{{Wrestling/CodyRhodes}} Cody Rhodes]] claimed is the worst match ever.
12* During the first of the titular matches at Money in the Bank 2023, Barrett -- who was working as a commentator -- had this to say when Butch grabbed a cricket bat and started attacking the other wrestlers with it:
13-->'''Barrett:''' It's about time [[SelfDeprecation an Englishman did something good with a cricket bat!]]
