* FanNickname:
** He's been called TheStarscream to Wade Barrett's Megatron, and not without reason.
** Carlton, due to his uncanny resemblance to a beefier Carlton Banks from ''Series/TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir''.
** The Macchiato Mauler - A nickname given since he is often seen with a coffee thermos.
** Also, "Attorney At Raw," and "Folgers Soldier".
** Some have noted the connection with Wrestling/JohnLaurinaitis (the former Johnny Ace) and deemed him [[VisualNovel/AceAttorney Ace's Attorney]].
** "Jennifer Hudsband", as coined by Corey Graves during the 2016 Wrestling/SurvivorSeries 5-on-5 traditional elimination tag team match between [[Wrestling/WWERaw Team Raw]] and [[Wrestling/WWESmackDown Team SmackDown Live]] while he was observing Wrestling/SethRollins' half-and-half t-shirt consisting of his own personal t-shirt on one half and Team RAW's t-shirt on the other. This is a reference to Otunga formerly being engaged to Jennifer Hudson.
** After they got away from [[Wrestling/TheNexus New Nexus]] association, [[Wrestling/CurtisAxel Mike McGillicutty]] and him became known in some circles as The Borre.

* BreakupBreakout: Zigzagged. After he and [[Wrestling/CurtisAxel Michael McGillicutty]] lost the titles, Otunga was granted a high level of TV exposure as John Laurinitis's stooge and occasional in-ring worker, while [=McGillicutty=] (whom most judged to be the more talented performer) was sent back to NXT for nearly two years. By 2013, though, Otunga was hardly on TV at all, and Axel had a lengthy reign as the Intercontinental Champion and aligned himself with the ''highly visible'' Wrestling/PaulHeyman.

* RealLifeWritesThePlot: The dynamic between Wrestling/WadeBarrett and Wrestling/DavidOtunga, with Otunga trying to usurp leadership and undermine Barrett, feels like as if it would've worked much better with Daniel Bryan involved as neither Barrett nor Otunga seem as if they have any business turning face.
