Bad News Barrett was recently in India doing promotional work for WWE 2K15, and was interviewed by SportsKeeda.com.
Barrett revealed that he is currently in the recovery process after sustaining an injury earlier this year, and being stripped of the Intercontinental Championship. He noted that he should be back in the ring by December, and hopes to be a part of the WWE European tour.
In regards to whether or not he holds anything against Jack Swagger for injuring him, Barrett said:
“Jack Swagger, he is a good guy himself. I don’t really blame him for the injury, I’ve been asked that before. It is just one of those things. And, unfortunately, you can get two guys, very experienced, like Jack Swagger and myself, and sometimes things go wrong, and that’s exactly what happened with regards to my injuries. I don’t blame him, but if I do get a chance I’m gonna hit him right away, just to be on the safer side.”
He also talked about WWE 2K15, and that he will be featured in the game as Bad News Barrett, with his signature catchphrase “I’m afraid I’ve got some bad news!”
“It is not like cartoon characters or anything like that anymore, it is literally like watching yourself on tv. So, it has been a big step up graphic wise, and there is an aspect of the game that they have implemented this year which is called the career mode where you start off as a new wrestler in NXT and the development programme, you gotta work your way all the way through WWE, and hopefully and ultimately win the WWE Heavyweight Championship which I thought was already a cool addition to the game, I was impressed with that. I think fans are going to respond well to that.”
