And a star is born ( Stu Bennett )

He's a Marine Biologist

Before he was handing out Wastelands and Souvenir Elbows like it was his job, Wade Barrett was working in a marine biology lab like it was his job...because it was.

Barrett (real name Stewart Bennett) graduated from the University of Liverpool with a degree in Marine Biology.

Before deciding to pursue his childhood dream of professional wrestling, he worked in a laboratory and even worked in recruiting for the lab's parent company.

Just imagine it: Barrett was very close to trading in his fancy coat with the rose for a bright white lab coat and goggles.
