6. Wade Barrett Says League of Nations Was Made To Help Roman Reigns With His WrestleMania 32 Push
During a recent interview on WZ Radio, former WWE Superstar Wade Barrett talked about The League of Nations and what ideas the members of the stable had. Below is what he said:
“The obvious answer is a heel group with a potential World Champion who had the Money In The Bank briefcase. You really want to be dominant along the lines of The SHIELD, The NEXUS or something like that… at least The NEXUS at first. We had a natural charisma together but it felt like we had very few segments to display that. The majority of the time it would be Sheamus coming out and talking while we stood behind him. I just don’t think that we focused much on trying to get over our natural charisma and natural friendship. It was just the storylines and I don’t know what we could have done. There were plenty of ideas thrown about but ultimately we were there as foils for Roman Reigns. We needed to help him with his WrestleMania push.”
