Wade Barrett gone from Nexus? A big mistake on the part of WWE?

[Prodigy]

Well if you don't already know last night on RAW Wade Barrett was told by CM Punk if he won the steel cage match he could remain in Nexus as the leader if he lost however, he'd' be gone. However Barrett lost the match after CM Punk stopped him from escaping the cage, therefore he's gone from Nexus.

Now imo this is horrible booking on the part of WWE. I believe that although under the leadership of Punk Nexus will in fact draw more, the fact Wade no longer has a group to keep him in the spotlight could mean trouble from him from now on. I mean now he no longer has anything or anyone to help him and where he should be in the main event I see him being buried by The Nexus.

The only viable option is to have Barrett start fueding with Otunga, wins a fued with him and get's back in The Nexus and throws Otunga out. This would keep him busy and would help set up the inevitable Otunga face turn.

Discuss.

Otunga has strong mic skills, how ever he does a good heel roll. Heath is talented yet quiet as a heel, I think they should turn him face & then put a mic in his hands. I can see someone like Heath being a face & on smackdown in the IC division

I don't think that Wade Barrett leaving Nexus is a bad thing, but I don't know what to truly make of it until I see what he does on Smackdown, where he's supposedly being transferred to. Let's see what the WWE has in store for the big Englishman.

Well looking at Smackdown spoilers it seems as if he's going to the blue brand. I won't say anymore but maybe the fued with taker could be on. If that's the case than I am delighted. Because I always believe younger guys facing Taker at mania is better than an older guy as it gets them over more.

The remour I hear is that it will be Barrett and Undertaker at Mania. I think it is a possitive thing that Barrett has left the group, they have run out of ideas for him as the heel leader, he needs a fresh change, and moving to Smackdown will open up new oppistion.

I've been saying this since the monday after TLC. He would benefit greatly by being on Smackdown, fresh feuds with people and more importantly getting the rub from the greatest attraction in WWE. Definitely would be his highlight, and would be even better than getting the rub from Cena.

 

[Keith]

The only issue I have with Barrett facing The Undertaker at WM, is that it will be quite obverious than he is not going to be the one to end the deadman's streak, but I suppose it is a small price to play for the impact this feud might have on his career.

 

[The New F'n Show]

Barrett could be a force on SD, he would have got lost on Raw if not with Nexus.

 

[Troy]

Moving him to Smackdown was certainly the best move. On Smackdown he becomes a contender right away as Smackdown isn't exactly over flowing with maineventers right now. RAW has plenty and with the new Nexus/Punk storyline he wouldn't have been involved in a prominent feud for some time. Hopefully on Smackdown he can get into the Elimination Chamber match at EC PPV.

 

[Deezy]

All he needs is a microphone and explain his reasoning and bing bang boom, instant maineventer for Smackdown. Since Smackdown is the show of oppurtunity and constantly makes the stars that Raw uses and abuses, but anyways. This is the best thing for Barrett, no more will his character be made to look feeble by Cena or Orton.

Him facing Big Show, who is possibly the hottest he has ever been right now, and you got yourself a good way to make Barrett a player, now all he needs is a good secondary move he could do the big guys and he will look like he could beat up Big Show, because I doubt he would even try Wasteland since he damn near killed Mark Henry when he tried to do it to him.

 

[Keith]

I was basically with you until you said that he should feud with the Big Show, that would stink a rotten one! If that match went anywhere over four minutes in the front row will be pitching themselfs to stay awake.
