WWE Star Celebrates Getting U.S. Citizenship

WWE star Wade Barrett (real name Stu Bennett) celebrated a special day today. Today was the day he was granted citizenship of the United States of America after having lived there for over 13 years.

Today, after 13.5 years of living in this great nation, I have been granted Citizenship of the USA.

Thank you 🇺🇸 for embracing this Englishman. World Cups aside, I will continue to support you in everything you do.

To Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Cheers!🍻
