Barrett is already one of the top 10 guys in the company on the mic, easily, and everyone's right...his work is carrying this angle. I just hope to God that when he's given a nice 10-15 minute match he delivers, because we've seen very little of his in ring work.

That being said, I'm digging him hardcore.

Barrett did get loads of experience in OVW (FCW) where he was doing commentry, I noticed an English guy doing to commentry on some youtube clips, only found out since NXT started that it was him, looks like he's setting himself up nicely for a longer term job in the WWE if needed. Easily the best talker since The Miz came on to the scene

That's exactly why i don't want the leader to be HHH. But i can see it heading that way. :( The focus would be more on him than Nexus, which defeats the entire point of this whole thing.

In my mind, HHH will have a non-wrestling leadership role. Feuding with Vince over control of RAW - climaxing at WM with an 8v8 match (HHH and Nexus Vs. Vince and 7 guys). This is where Daniel Bryan _finally_ returns and Vince wins back RAW!

Oh and on topic - Barrett is still good on the mic

substitute the WHC for this...

that's the belt (if anyone remembers 5 years ago) that was used before the spinner belt

This guy could be a legend. Within a year I'd have him basically running RAW the way HHH used to in early 2000.

He has fantastic stage presence. He's got that kind of aura about him that demands your attention. Big fan.

Also, his nickname in OVW was The Pinnacle. They should probably work that into his character now.

Barrett really is fucking good. If anyone out of Nexus ends up with a huge push, it should be him. He's quite enjoyable. Also, he seems to have lit a fire under a few main eventers to do better. I mean, how much must it suck to be outdone by an NXT rookie?

Except in Edge's case, because he can be outdone by a ham and cheese sammich.

O RLY???

I remember him saying at the live Raw in the UK that he'd be the first English WWE Champion, and he will be.

This makes me happy.

If there is another reign of terror. I will hold you personally responsible.

Wade Barrett is awesome. He's quickly becoming one of my favourite wrestlers in WWE. He is so comfortable on the mic. I like mic workers that talk at a normal to fast pace and do it confidently, as opposed to the slow, droning promos we get from guys like Kennedy, Swagger and Orton. I find it hard to sit through those.

If all goes well, Barrett will be allowed to redo the title belt!
I've looked into the future and seen this new belt!

Barrett is pretty damn solid, thank god too, company needs fresh stuff. I don't like the whole Nexus, seems like a watered down nWo with a bunch of guys that suck and only one dude that stands out.

Oh do fuck off. You're missing the whole point of Nexus.

I concur with most of this, It is more than refreshing to have a new potential main guy around, this guy given time and the right feuds after this angle will be able to generate a lot of PPV Buys down the line. He's like Orton and Cena 7-8 years ago.

You can see it in him, bursting to come out.

Great the guy can talk, he's better on the mic than the rest of them. He also almost killed Mark Henry on Monday.

Had he killed Mark Henry, he'd have done us a huuuuuuuuuge favor, sick of the sight of that bastard.

WHO ELSE IS GONNA SPLIT WIGS

The two aren't mutually exclusive. He can understand the "point" and still think it's nWo Lite! (now with 75% less Kliq) sans interesting people.

Hooboy, am I gonna get flamed by fucktards who assume that because I understand his opinion, I must also share it. After all, what kind of witchcraft could lead to understanding someone's views if they are not your own?

The whole Nexus angle reeks of nWo. I mean, it's a bunch of people who banded together to dominate the roster and take over <s>WCW</s> WWE. The "point" doesn't change that. Doesn't stop the similarities. In fact, the "point" seems to rely on a similar theme, albeit sans the actual "big" names (Which was part of his complaint).

Now, old ideas aren't inherently bad. This one is, in my estimation, working pretty well. But if you don't enjoy it, then it's basically a watered-down nWo.

If anything, I wouldn't have brought out "Team Cena" any time soon, keep the Nexus on top, and give a few of the "pros" minor victories. That's about he only thing I think WWE is fucking up right now in the angle. I stress this only because half this board is very insistent on pretending I'm for things I'm not and against things I'm not. I figured if I say it three times over three paragraphs, it might sink in.

I. Like. Nexus.

But you don't have to "miss the point" to criticise it for its similarities to nWo.

Also, Vince cultivated a promotion in which guys like these don't get ahead. It's not hard to buy that a lot of fans would respond to that. Hosses dominate, rookies are generally jobbers, and unless Vince makes you, you don't go anywhere. none of these are iron clad, but they're sturdy enough that people will buy them. But more importantly, they're the rules for which we suspend disbelief. It's the same shit that lets people believe that an armbar is just an armbar, but an armbar with a special name done by a specific guy will make any opponent tap (except Cena).

I’ve been impressed with him since that Winds of Change promo he did on the fly during NXT1. He’s not the best in the ring, but with some more experience he’ll get better. I can definitely see him being a future world champ.

BTW....
