Triple H or Cena to allign with Nexus?
- WWE is toying with the idea of turning a top Superstar heel and have them be the person behind The Nexus angle. The main people being pitched for a heel turn are Triple H and believe it or not, John Cena.
Cena turning heel would be a risk because of his popularity with kids and everything else, including merchandise. Triple H has wanted to turn heel for a few years now but with injuries to him and his co-workers, they haven't had the right time to turn him. Source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter |

I was thinking about this a few nights ago. While I really want a heel Cena, a heel HHH makes perfect sense, especially if they turn Sheamus.
This about it, HHH gets taken out by a new blood guy in Sheamus. Realizing that the new, young talent is starting to take over, and his throne may be in jeopardy, he pretty much gets the hungriest group of young talent to do his bidding. They're job can be to pretty much protect HHH, and keep the rest of the WWE in check, under the hopes that once HHH is gone, they'll be the ones running the show. |

Ya Barrett needs to be the main guy behind this. Turning a top star heel would just take away Barrett's heat. This should all lead to a big Cena vs. Barrett PPV match.
How is Barrett's in-ring work? If he's decent enough, I'd like to see him win the title out of all this. |

The only way I could see Cena being turned is if they have the intention to bring in Danielson and put him immediately into a feud with Cena.

Mmmmmmmm. The idea of making Cena go heel makes me go crazy like Pavlov's dogs. It COULD work. But I would wait for a little while, like after the November elections so WWE could keep it's kid friendly image for Linda. Stupid as it sounds, she's catching alot of flak about her job here in CT. But you gotta wonder how long this angle is gonna run for.
Triple H........how does it work? He's been out of action since NXT began, right? I can see him coming in as the mystery GM. But heading up Nexus? Jericho looks like he's the brains behind it the way things are going with him now. |

Barrett needs to be the man if HHH is the leader that totally dissolves the purpose of nexus.
they will not turn cena because when they turned Austin in 2001 everything went to shit. |

i feel like austin went to shit because he was always a tweener and for anyone not to cheer whatever he did they'd hae to go to far off his persona. with cena id think it'd work better and he'd get hogan heel turn heat and it'd be the whole turned his back on the fans type kick

A heel Triple H would be good but leading the Nexus would seem like a step down for him and also take credibility from Nexus and Barrett specifically. Cena leading wouldn't make much sense since they are constantly attacking him. Neither interests me in the least.

Turn Cena heel and then have Darren Young come back sans ridiculous hair and do the Cena Rapping schtick circa 8 years ago. It would be perfect!

It should be someone else that's an already established heel like Jericho, DiBiase, Edge, or Miz if anything.

I don't think it would be good. I think Barrett is already at the point where is is respected by the fans that he can be over as a heel.
I actually would not mind if Barrett became champ with in the next few months. |

I was trying to come up with a way to turn Cena heel yesterday for the Cena Hate thread...I could think of NOTHING except Nexus. I comtemplated him even being a special ref and turning on another top face...but then I realized that there was no other top face that would really give the heat needed for a heel turn.
so its this or nothing for John. |

HHH as a face gets just as boring after a while as HHH the heel. I guess that could be true for anyone. He is equally good at both in my opinion and he is rare in the idea that it doesn't take much to turn him either way.

If you were really channeling Jimmy, you'd need to ask someone to change your diaper.
![]() Anyway, Trips' work as both a face and a heel is largely contingent on the people around him. Jimmy probably only likes him because Trips is dominant, and Jimmy dreams of being dominated by a big, hulking norseman. Regardless, both Cena and Trips being behind Nexus is stupid. Turing Cena heel is a longshot to begin with, since he's the guy who sells the shitty shirts. Turning him as he's been fucked royally is bad reasoning even for WWE. They could try a "Hogan joins the nWo" moment, but I don't think WWE would risk their big ticket right now. Triple H being the mastermind benefits...Triple H. And it doesn't benefit him all that much. He doesn't need the boost, and it kills some of the heat NXT's getting on their own. This at least makes sense from WWE's mindset, because it involves shoving Triple H into the center of an angle and screwing up a good angle...but it's still dumb. |

I'd much rather see someone other than Cena or Triple H revealed as the Nexus mastermind. As for the anyonymous GM, it would just be stupid to reveal Cena as being behind it, but I think Trips could make it work fine as he's been out for like 2-3 months.
And even I know now is not the time to turn Cena heel. Could it work for Trips? Perhaps, but I think right now if they tried it on his return or anytime too soon thereafter it could backfire in a major way. As for who is revealed as the Nexus' mastermind, it should be either Jericho or one of the other 7 pros from NXT season 1. |

I really don't want Nexus to have a mastermind, UNLESS the mastermind is a non-wrestler. Barrett is great on the mic, has a guaranteed title shot, and can get a title run out of this. What would happen? He'd win the belt and then simply lay down for the leader? That would suck, and they'd all just be standing behind the leader while he spoke.
As for the two options presented - as much as I would love a Cena heel run, it would be one of the least sensible things they've ever done from a storyline perspective. I can understand "taking one for the team" and allowing yourself to get your ass kicked to push across the threat, but he's been jumped by Nexus several times now AND they caused him to lose his title. It just wouldn't make any sense. You formed this group and willingly got your ass kicked and lost your title just to make a point? Triple H would make far more sense for the reasons that WWKD mentioned. |

If they feel the need to add a mastermind, I'd prefer it be a non-wrestling role. I think Barrett should be doing the leading in the ring, and get any main events or title reigns out of this.
He can carry the stable on the microphone too, but if they think a co-leader will help get them over more, I am fine with that as long as they split mic time and Barrett is the one stepping into the ring. |

DUH...CHRIS JERICHO. He's the PERFECT guy for the job. Plus, the NXT guys can learn from him in real life, he can mentor them and stuff, as they work on what they will be doing on tv.
