5 times Wade Barrett should've been made World Champion

Wade Barrett seemed destined for success

#2 Elimination Chamber 2011

Elimination Chamber
Barrett was always going to be an underdog in this match

Barrett, now the leader of The Corre, was a part of the 2011 Elimination Chamber match for the World Heavyweight Championship. Despite the spin-off group not being nearly as successful or interesting as The Nexus, there was still hope that Barrett could claw some relevance from them all.

Unfortunately, that hope was extinguished by the fist of Big Show as Barrett was the first man eliminated from the match.

This would've been a brilliant opportunity for the group to debut one or two new members, leading to the Englishman winning the WHC as a result.

Barrett looked as if he'd have a big time match at WrestleMania 27 anyway, so it made sense to add the title into the equation. However, the WWE decided to keep the title on Edge.

Once again, we go just a few months into the future.
