The Nexus: Where are they now?

The original wrecking crew.

Wade Barrett

The leader of the pack, Wade Barrett.

As the founding member, Barrett served as a patriarch of sorts. He led the original faction with force and a no-nonsense attitude. Like any good general, Wade Barrett successfully led his soldiers into battle with some of WWE's top stars and spared no one's feelings about their presence along the way.

On May 6, 2016, Barrett left the WWE, after deciding not to sign a new contract. Since leaving the company, Barrett has stated that he simply felt the time was right and needed to just take a break from the industry. When asked if he would return to the business, he said he certainly would, once the time is right.

With his new found down time, Barrett has been able to take a trip back to the UK, to spend time with friends and family.

Wade Barrett was a member of The Nexus from June 27, 2010 - January 3, 2011.
