- Wade Barrett became the leader of The Nexus essentially through winning NXT season 1. He and Otunga were the last two contestants on NXT season 1, and Barrett's last shining moment before winning the competition was an utter verbal burial of Otunga's wrestling ability and essential value as a wrestler. In other words; Barrett beat out Otunga for leadership of the group by exposing his flaws and humiliating him. No wonder Otunga kept trying to take power from Barrett, yet never acted this way towards CM Punk.
