Australian kids’ magazine K-Zone as well as Australian lifestyle magazine Zoo Weekly both recently had a chat with Wade Barrett, and here’s a bit of what he had to say!

Excerpt from K-Zone:

KZ: Do you play WWE video games? If so, which is your favourite?

WB: Yes, I play Smack Down VS Raw on Nintendo Wii. You can download my character and play as me, which is pretty cool!

KZ: What’s in store when you come out to Australia and NZ in July?

WB: It’s going to be a very exiting Raw tour. I’m hoping to come out as I’ve never been out to Australia or New Zealand. All the wrestlers can’t wait to be there!

Excerpt from Zoo Weekly:

So if you could fight any celebrity in the world, who would it be and why?

I’d like to fight Gordon Brown, the former PM of the UK because he did such a bad job and he sent the economy crashing down. Tony Blair did a good job while he was in charge and Brown was his chancellor, and Brown was great and had the economy running well but as soon as he became the Prime Minister he lost control, had no idea what he was doing and put us back several years. So if I could fight anyone I’d love it to be him.

What country would you say has the craziest fans?

Believe it or not, but I was amazed when I witnessed this but the French in Paris are nuts. The French aren’t the sort of people you expect to go crazy for wrestling but the Parisians are absolutely mental when it comes to our tours. They’re loud and so into it. But hopefully the Aussie crowds can step it up and beat them. I hope they do because the French are some of my least favourite people on the planet, being an English man and all, so I’d like to say that the Australian’s are louder and wilder. The challenge is set!
