Long before his broadcasting career, Barrett enjoyed success as an in-ring competitor. He first rose to the top as the leader of The Nexus, one of the most impactful factions in WWE history. During his wrestling career, he captured the Intercontinental Championship five times and competed in several high-profile storylines.

Following his return on the black and silver brand, Barrett took to X to express his excitement about heading back to the territory he previously called home.

“Always buzzing to come HOME to #WWENXT and reunite with @VicJosephWWE See you Sunday for #NXTGAB 🇺🇸.”

Check out his post below:

Wade Barrett’s return to the developmental brand comes at a crucial time as it heads to the Great American Bash, set to take place on June 28. Barrett is expected to be part of the broadcast team for the premium live event, reuniting once again with Vic Joseph for one of NXT’s biggest shows of the year.

Major surprise announced for NXT Great American Bash

WWE has announced that AAA stars will be part of this Sunday’s Great American Bash.

The news was revealed during this week’s edition of the black and silver brand when Robert Stone shared details of a phone call he had with AAA General Manager Rey Mysterio.

“Actually, it was AAA general manager Rey Mysterio [on the phone]. There’s gonna be some luchadors at The Great American Bash [on] Sunday, which I am excited about,” Stone said.

The announcement marks the latest crossover between WWE and AAA following the growing relationship between the two promotions. Since WWE’s acquisition of AAA earlier this year, fans have seen several stars from the Mexican promotion appear on WWE programming.

While Stone did not reveal which luchadors will be appearing at the event, the announcement immediately sparked speculation among fans. AAA boasts one of the most talented rosters in lucha libre, and several of its biggest names have already begun making appearances on WWE television in recent months.

It will be interesting to see which AAA stars make the trip to NXT and whether they will simply appear or become involved in matches and storylines.
