A few weeks ago Wade Barrett made his return to WWE as part of the NXT commentary team, and it looks like Barrett is here to stay.

The former Intercontinental Champion confirmed to Sports Illustrated that he signed a one year deal with WWE, and an option to extend the deal is included.

“I hope this lasts for a long time, that’s our intent. So there is no bad news to share, but never forget, there is always a little bad news up my sleeve.”

While talking about what fans can expect from the NXT commentary team moving forward, Wade Barrett noted that their goal is to be different.

“Our aim is to be different, a little more unique than the other WWE programming. We don’t want to be a carbon copy of what you hear on Raw or SmackDown. I’ve known Beth for years, and she is incredibly talented, and I am just getting to know Vic. I’m excited to learn from and work with both of them, and I’m really excited to develop this into a really tight unit.”
