Five instances when WWE missed to use Wade Barrett's potential

2. The Corre

This is another example of misusing talents

The Corre was created when CM Punk took leadership over the Nexus back in 2011. Punk kicked Barrett out of the Nexus, interfering in Barrett’s match and attacking him. Stablemates Justin Gabriel, Heath Slater, and Ezekiel Jackson followed suit, siding with Barrett after the turn.

This had all the makings of a feud. Barrett had a reason to go after Punk, and fans wanted to see a New Nexus vs. The Corre matchup. That never happened though, and fans only got a couple of brawls between the two groups as CM Punk feuded with Randy Orton. The Corre ultimately dissolved within three months, but not before Barrett captured his first WWE Intercontinental Championship.
