If Otunga is the leader, then they finally got it right

Punk really needs to stay as far away from the leader role of a stable as possible.

No. Otunga is fucking terrible. Everyone agrees with this assessment but you, as far as I know.

Punk, as an established star, takes the Nexus angle to a new level.

The little arm raise thing was pretty cool. Mixed feelings about Punk being the new leader I just wonder what Barrett is gonna end up doing exactly.

2011 = Punk's year.

One can only hope so.

@ PHX, i'm sure Wade will be pissed at first when he returns on-screen. But in the end he'll be a singles star and go after the WWE title.

Maybe Wade turns face? I don't know how well he can get over, and it won't be believable for him to come back and help Cena immediately, but hey.

Where does Wade fit into all of this is the next question?

I say he moves to SD or they do the very far fetched thing and make him have something to do with the mystery GM.

Or he could drag them all down to the shitter and jobber status like he did so well with the SES. It probably had more to do with SD writers sucking, but the fact is his only WWE led stable was a heap of shit and brought everyone including himself down a notch.

I much rather see Nexus and the guys get a chance to stand on their own and get a possible spotlight without Punk and Wade keeping them in their shadows. One of them might be able to emerge if given the chance like Dave did when he finally got out of the Legend Killer's shadow.

Isn't Zeke supposed to be moving to SD to get that same or a very similar push to the top?

1. Zeke is face now so has nothing to do with any push Barrett would get
2. Pretty sure Zeke is gonna get the typical mid card push.
3. If Barrett moved there pretty sure it'd be to main event.

Or he could drag them all down to the shitter and jobber status like he did so well with the SES. It probably had more to do with SD writers sucking, but the fact is his only WWE led stable was a heap of shit and brought everyone including himself down a notch.

If you seriously are gonna try and blame that group's failure on Punk then something is wrong with you. Punk led nobodies on a show where they are run by dumbasses. This is a totally different deal here.

That shit is fucking priceless :lmaolmao:lmao

Let's blame CM Punk for the SES being jobbed out to Rey Mysterio, Big Show & co. :lmao
