History Characters / TheNexus

* {{Bishonen}}

* ButNotTooBlack

* DarkChick

* PrecisionFStrike

* TheRival: Had his in Wrestling/ChrisJericho and Wrestling/{{Edge}}.

%%* IHaveTheHighGround

* [[NiceHat Nice Cap]]

* [[NiceHat Nice Cap]]

* CoolHat: Before joining Nexus.

** Meh, not really. For the past couple of weeks he's been shown to be sympathetic towards the Nexus, so it's not too much of a stretch to think he'd join them.
** {{Foreshadowing}}: Also, if one were to pay attention to said weeks, Punk wore a UsefulNotes/CharlesManson shirt while still on the announce table. It may or may not have been intentional, but it was a hint nonetheless.
** [[FunWithAcronyms Charles Manson]] Punk?

* HijackedByGanon

%%* IdenticalStranger: To Wrestling/{{Batista}}

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Husky stands out, from his old school ring style to his different build.
** And now he's lost weight, grown out his hair, and adopted the gimmick of a DeepSouth redneck with {{Pyromaniac}} tendencies.

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Wrestles a very Japanese style, with judo like throws, kicks and high flying fun.

* BaldOfEvil
** BaldOfAwesome: Before he turned heel with Nexus.

* FanNickname: [[TheStarscream Starscream]]

* TheStarscream: He and Barrett don't exactly agree on how Nexus should be used.
** For added bonus, [[{{Expy}} he actually acts like Starscream]] from the 80s cartoon. He very vocally threatens to rebel against Wade, '''frequently.'''
*** So much so that Starscream has become his FanNickname.

* FanNickname: Damien Nelson and David Herro of the Pro Wrestling Report Show like to refer to him as "Perfect Jr"

* FanNickname: Welshtista
** Batistwo, also.

* FanNickname: Woi Barrah, a mangling of how he pronounces his name.

* FanNickname: Black Cena, Chocolate Cena, Tropical Cena, Bizarro Cena, probably plenty more.

* [[BadassBeard Badass Bea]][[BeardOfEvil rd of Evil]]

* BadassBeard[=/=]BeardOfEvil
* TheBrute
* EvilBrit

* TheGiant
* IdenticalStranger: To Wrestling/{{Batista}}
* UsefulNotes/{{Wales}}

* AmbiguouslyBrown
* AmbiguouslyGay: Both Otunga and Cena seem to think he is.
* BadassBeard: Had one in the beginning, but shaved it later.
** Then he grew it back
* BeardOfEvil

* TheDragon: To Wade.

* MrFanservice

* IHaveTheHighGround
* {{Keet}}
* OurAngelsAreDifferent
* RealMenWearPink

* BadassBeard[=/=]BeardOfEvil
* BaldOfEvil

* TheBrute
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: ''Oh god yes.''
* ReligiousBruiser
* ScaryBlackMan

* UnfortunateNames: [=McGillicutty=]? Seriously? That has to be the least intimidating name ever. Despite heavily promoting that he was the son of Curt Hennig, WWE promoted the name as him using his mother's maiden name to avoid being in Hennig's shadow.

* ThoseTwoBadGuys: Two contrasting personalities and ring styles that nevertheless go great together, and they just happen to be a matched set.

* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: Waah? Punk's leader of Nexus?

** {{Reconstructed}}, after returning as Curtis Axel.

* GenreSavvy

** He then went on to become one of the most over wrestlers in the entire company, his reactions ''dwarfing'' those that Wrestling/JohnCena ever got. He's the most over since Wrestling/StoneColdSteveAustin and Wrestling/TheRock and became the Undisputed WWE Championship at ''WrestleMania XXX'' over Wrestling/RandyOrton and the returning ''Wrestling/{{Batista}}''. Looking back at it now, getting kicked out of the Nexus was probably the best thing to happen to Bryan's career.

** Batista threatened to retire if then-General Manager BretHart didn't grant him a rematch. Hart called his bluff, which lead to him to retire.

* UnnecessaryRoughness: Probably as far as [[LighterAndSofter PG-WWE]] goes, his Attitude Adjustment to Justin Gabriel ''onto (and almost through) the windshield of a car'' on the 11-29-10 episode of [[WWERaw RAW]] probably counts as this.

* FullNameBasis: His Feud with RandyOrton has had him politely referring to him as ''Randall Keith Orton.''

* PutOnABus: After being punted in the head by RandyOrton, Husky was the only member to never return under his original name, and was sent back to FCW, the development territory for Wrestling/{{WWE}}.

* AlliterativeName: [[Wrestling/TheWyattFamily Husky Harris]], and [[Wrestling/CurtisAxel Michael [=McGillicutty=]]]

** He then went on to become one of the most over wrestlers in the entire company, his reactions ''dwarfing'' those that Wrestling/JohnCena ever got. He's the most over since StoneColdSteveAustin and TheRock and became the Undisputed WWE Championship at ''WrestleMania XXX'' over Wrestling/RandyOrton and the returning ''Wrestling/{{Batista}}''.
