Bad News Barrett took to Twitter soon after defeating Dolph Ziggler for the WWE Intercontinental Championship in the two-out-of-three falls match that opened up the first edition of WWE RAW of 2015.
Barrett paid homage to Booker T, noting that he was a “five time, five time, five time, five time, five time” champion, before quickly turning back heel and rubbing his victory in the faces of Ziggler fans.
Below are Barrett’s tweets.
I guess that makes me a 5 time, 5 time, 5 time, 5 time, 5 TIME IC-Champion…. Suckkkkkkkaaaaaaas @BookerT5x #BNB pic.twitter.com/f9Ak9pV7xw

And to all the crying @HEELZiggler fans… Imagine how badly I'd have whooped him if I didn't have a layer of ring rust over me. #BNB
