Bad News Barrett def. Sheamus to advance in the Intercontinental Championship No. 1 Contender’s Tournament
Bad news travels fast, and the luck of the
Irish ran dry on Raw when Bad News Barrett
elbowed Sheamus out of the running to face
Big E for the Intercontinental Championship
in the semifinals of the No. 1 Contender’s
Tournament that began last week. The
Irishman had promised his hooligans a “Big
Bad Brogue Kick” to shut Barrett’s famous
mouth and he rolled out of the gate strong to
set the Brit up for just that, clobbering
Barrett’s sternum with the Ten Beats of the
Bodhrán and following up with the Irish
Curse.
Barrett’s fighter’s reflexes saved him from
doom when he dodged the Brogue Kick and
scooped up a ricocheting Sheamus into the
Winds of Change. Sheamus didn’t let the move
slow him down, which turned out to be his
downfall: The three-time Intercontinental
Champion chose to use Sheamus’ momentum
against him, unleashing a springing Bad News
elbow to the Irishman’s head as Sheamus ran
to chase him out of the ring. #BOOM.
