I will go to the grave believing Wade Barrett should've been in a marquee match at WrestleMania 27. Either against The Undertaker (to which the build already started with Nexus literally burying Undertaker with no follow up) or defending the WWE Championship against John Cena, whose tenure in the Nexus would've been stretched out longer than a month.
Probably the former. They'd likely already made the decision to build to a Cena/Rock storyline to span across three Manias, so Barrett being the third wheel in that would've sucked. Undertaker going in to total Sting vs. the nWo mode and holding off the Nexus at Mania could've been a lot of fun.
