YES. OMG YES. It may lead to crap, as WWE is prone to do, but tonight, WIN. This is how you salvage 6 wasted months.

Does this mean when Barrett returns he's a face? I sincerely hope not. I'd like Barrett to return as an outsider, but not as a baby kissing, high fiving, grinning face.

Like many I saw it coming - that ending image with all of them with their arms raised was definitely one of the more powerful endings of Raw as of late.

I liked Raw, but I don't like Punk being leader of Nexus. It makes no sense, especially if it's retroactive, and I'd really just as soon see the group die already - especially if it doesn't have Barrett.
Honestly, I was thinking throughout the show - up until the thing with the EMTs - that Punk was going to be the GM. Which makes a lot more sense.

Gonna end the same way at Mania with Cena beating Punk in the main-event instead of Wade, but at least Punk is twenty times the wrestler Barrett is, so the match will probably be very, very good.

All good will I had for anything Nexus/Cena has long been spent. I can't imagine this being anything but pointless until I see results.

The greatest night in the history of our sport. Though, where the fudge is Wade Barrett? Replace Milhouse with Barrett

Throwing a random idea out, but maybe the reason Nexus helped bury Undertaker was Punk?

this is why you write big angles beginning to end from the start, so you dont have to retcon TNA style and fit it to make sense

The crowd didn't seem to really care. Except for the really loud audible boo's right? Eh, I didn't hear anything, hell, I heard the ''cm punk chants'' that the 10 smarks in the crowd started being louder than the boos

I hope that Wade Barrett does return to Nexus after selling his... Burial. Throw in Jericho whenever he returns, and you'd have the most perfect promo-making stable ever.

Put Barrett on Smackdown and keep him a heel.

The potential for this is awesome....but we all know whats really going to happen.
Cena vs PuNk for a few Raws that rehashes the early Nexus vs Cena encounters. Then during PuNexus beatdown of Cena #236 Barrett will show up to help Cena.
Next Raw PuNexus surrounds Cena & Barrett and Barrett says he brought backup and Tarver, Young, and Sheffield run down to the ring. Royal Rumble features a 5 V 5 tag team Elimination Match.

The kicking out of Darren Young and the beatdown on Undertaker make it seem as if Punk is using them to go after people who have pissed him off in the past.

Hate it. It brings Punk down instead of elevates the other guys.

The crowd chanting "CM Punk" when he put the armband on was awesome.

I'm curious how Barrett will play into this.
Feud with Punk/Barrett? Punk being the original secret leader of Nexus? It could be interesting, IMO.
Although why do all the main eventers always wear the Nexus armbands on the left arm insted of the right?
