You must have missed the explanation given on last week's Superstars where they were face for the first time. Oh wait, there wasn't any. Just like how there was no explanation given for Tamina or Rosa turning heel.

Given the blue set and the constant turns, I'm not entirely convinced that they're not just taping SmackDown in the Impact Zone.

Justin's face turn begins I guess.
Not sure what they'd do with Heath unless they are keeping the team together, I can't imagine Heath as a face on his own but the team would be great as a face tag team. Remember Gabriel is booked to tag with Orton at the shows in South Africa, which even though could be a hometown thing, it does seem pretty random.
It will be really really weird to see Wade Barrett on his own, I hope he succeeds though, he was everything that was great about the Nexus and was the shining light in a failed experiment of the Corre. If they do bring in Sheffield and Tarver to replace Slaybriel in the Corre as previously suggested though I'd mark out like f***.
Of course, Wade could go back and reclaim the Nexus on Monday, which would be cool as well.

Just like how there was no explanation given for Tamina or Rosa turning heel. Well, to be fair, Rosa went from doing nothing to vying for the affections of Zack Ryder (heel)... to doing nothing again, to then vie for the attention of Team LayCool (heel). So, even though she hasn't done much to be of any particularly alignment, she's always at least associated with heels. I have exactly no explanation for Tamina and the Usos, though.

With how out of the blue this Corre thing is, I pretty much guess that it's a fake-out so Gabriel and Slater can help Barrett beat Ezekiel at Capitol Punishment.

Just to clear things up, the chip was sitting on Johnny Curtis' shoulder, emphasising him having a chip on his shoulder for not being on TV since NXT Season 4.
It's not that much different to Ryder's 'This is the WWE... this is a ball.. this is WWE dropping the ball' etc.

The New Nexus lasted longer than the Corre. The New Nexus. Lasted. Longer. Than. The Corre.

At least The Corre got a WrestleMania match (even if it was crap).
The New Nexus didn't even get into the DVD bonus battle royal, because they were killed dead by the Orton punt at the time.

... They lost to the Usos. Then they broke up. At this point, I'm not even sure which is worse. Either way, Smackdown's writers seem increasingly incompetent. The Corre, booked right, could have been the biggest thing to happen to Smackdown. Instead, they've jobbed them out to all and sundry, ruining any mystique they might have had, teased breakups for ages ruining any sense of unity and equality they might have, and finally gone through with it.
Monkeys with typewriters have a greater chance of putting out a decent show than Smackdown's writers. Well, if that's not how they're doing it anyway...

Who is Jinder Mahal again? Is he the tall guy with Khali? Yeah, he's the tall guy with Khali. Makes you wonder why they're pushing him.

3. A.J. beat Tamina. The crowd got behind A.J. while Tamina was dominating. A.J. hit a flying knee. Tamina had her up for a move, but A.J. caught her in a small package for the win.

The Johnny Curtis stuff sounds even worse than last week.
I like Sin Cara and Daniel Bryan tagging.

Raise your hand if you think Jinder Mahal will still be around in 2 years.

So much for the Christian story having a good pay off eh?
I think we've finally reached the point where we can just assume everything WWE books is going to end up stupid instead of the "wait and see how it plays out" approach of last year.
