They really shouldn't do this. The angle is getting over so well. Skip Sheffield could handle the role. He is not the flashiest talker, but he's shown to be able to deliver things that people connect to. He "gets it" on the mic. David Otunga is also a flashy talker when he is given a script.

They spelled Barrett wrong and the last sentence makes no sense.
I call bullshit. |

So they're not good enough to stand out on their own, so WWE thinks it's best to split them up and let them go out alone...
I know WWE seems masochistic at times but this is just stupid |

They could always continue the "Barrett is in Stamford meeting with WWE officials" angle and have him appear on Raw via satellite.

The fact it, all these Indy wrestlers coming up now are all mat based wrestlers. They use all sorts of submission moves. Desmond Wolfe is a perfect example, his style is boring. Danielson's style is boring, and you are only fooling yourself if you think the fans of the WWE will not eventually start the "this is boring" chant in any one of their matches.

For realz. Life dealt them a shit sandwich. They have to eat it.
They fired one leader,and karma took the other. No one wants to see Skip, lucille Balle, Ann heche, New jack City and Black cena do a dam nthing |

I hope they don't drop it. But they've had a couple sturdy setbacks here, and that's usually enough for WWE. Whether it is this time depends on how committed they are. |

Dropping this storyline is a huge mistake despite the setbacks even if it means simply postponing it to a later time is fine by me besides it won't be long before season 2 is done.

make Joe Henning show up and take charge, he wouldnt even have to leave NXT and would make it more interesting connecting the show to Nexus...

Stalling the angle more than a week or two will likely kill the momentum just as sure as canning the angle entirely. How much longer does NXT season 2 actually last?

Just add NXT2 guys as they get eliminated. Maybe next week have one of the "high potential" ones (Kaval/Hennig/Riley) get screwed over and eliminated and have them show up the following RAW as Barrett's second in command.

It would be the worst decision to just disband the group since none of the wrestlers outside of Barrett and Danielson are strong enough in terms of character and skills/promo-wise to succeed on their own in the short term without more development needed. WWE has a lot of ways to extend the storyline such as to take a week off every so often of them attacking to help build up the whole "spontaneous" attacks they like the do. Another way would have only a couple of guys interrupt a match or segment in a "hit-and-run" style setup so they don't wear out having them always attack in a big group. |

This has been the angle that has caused the biggest stir in the WWE in quite a long time. Regardless of how "ready" some of the guys are, if you pull the plug on it, you are shit-canning a lot of heat. I still maintain the best way to go about it is to have Barrett "suspended" in hopes of the Nexus disbanding. They continue to lay waste to guys randomly. They don't even need to speak. Get Otunga to rehearse a promo and see if it's good enough to air, maybe.
Barrett wasn't even a big part of the beat-downs. He commanded the traffic, but anyone can do that. He used to hit his finishing move on the guy before Gabriel hit the 450 Splash, but Otunga can hit The Verdict on goes, no problem. You can have the General Manager order them into competition -- have The Hart Dynasty face two guys after a few weeks of continued beat-downs, and have the other guys cost The Hart Dynasty the match. Eventually, put the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship on them and have them take the beatings across to SmackDown!. You can easily chew up enough time for this angle to keep going until Barrett is back. |

On a side note, he may not be much of a leader, but I really like Justin Gabriel. The facial expressions (the look of pure disgust and hatred), the 450, and the general way he carries himself as a heel are pretty damn impressive. |

A lot of this is moronic!
I love the idea above.. Get a WWE job! What bothers me is... Where's the trouble in finding a facility for Barrett to cut a promo via satellite? There are loads of HD TV Studios within the UK that could film and deliver a quick promo in seconds. Dare I say it, a live link-up could even be done. They could even play on the real life element of this, and have Drew and Wade appear side by side, and complain about the poor management of WWE allowing thier visas to expire. Barrett goes on about how, they KNEW about his visa going, but, they chose to let it slide, because they feared what the Nexus was gonna do, and hoped that without his direction, they'd crumble slowly... McIntyre pledges alliance to the Nexus in solidarity. Moans at Teddy Long for letting HIS expire, despite being the "chosen one", voila. |
