The Corre. No, seriously, that's what they were called.

#4 The Corre gained little momentum in WWE

To this day, what this name is supposed to signify is still unknown. It may be the most confusing faction name in WWE history.

When leadership of Nexus moved to CM Punk, Wade Barrett moved to SmackDown. On the January 14th, 2011 episode, Justin Gabriel and Heath Slater met him there and, along with Ezekiel Jackson, formed their own group. The group was declared leaderless and they were now a group of equals.

It was the addition of the powerhouse Jackson that made this faction intriguing, as he was being primed by WWE to be something of a competent Ahmed Johnson. Eventually, however, it would be Jackson that was the first member to split from the group. But not before it had some minor success.

Gabriel and Slater would win the WWE Tag Team Championships from Santino Marella and Vladimir Kozlov. Wade Barrett would also win his first WWE Intercontinental Championship from Kofi Kingston.

The Corre would also throw down with other factions in WWE, including brawls with Nexus and A.P.P.L.E., a group consisting of Marella, Evan Bourne, Daniel Bryan and Mark Henry.

That particular faction, whose name stood for the Alliance of People Powered by Loathing Everything you stand for (no, seriously), only lasted one day. In case you were wondering why they weren't on this list as well.

Eventually, however, the group simply failed to gain any traction and following Jackson's departure, Slater and Gabriel would split off from Barrett, ending the group's WWE tenure entirely.
