After news leaked yesterday of Stu “Wade Barrett” Bennett’s intention to NOT re-sign with the WWE when his contract comes due, the vague comments and subtle jabs began almost immediately. Ryback was one of the first to allude to Barrett’s situation when he took to Twitter to “call dibs”:
I call dibs on Wastleland and spinning Mule Kick! #FeedMeMoreMoves

Randy Orton’s Official Facebook page was the next to jump at the issue. While it doesn’t appear as if Orton personally runs the account, it’s safe to say someone in the WWE does & were not happy with Barrett’s decision, posting a video of Barrett vs Orton at Bragging Rights 2010.
One thing #TheViper doesn’t respect: A COWARD.

Barrett isn’t responding to the rampant rumors, only posting:
I'll comment further at a more appropriate time, but for now I'm 100% focused on doing my job for @WWE. See you at #FastLane on Sunday.
