I bet he'll be tagged in to do a Sharpshooter at best. The one thing I wanna know is why is Khali in this?
He hasn't been in a PPV since....I dunno when lol. Everybody else was attacked by Nexus, but Khali serves no purpose.

Otunga is worse in the ring than the Great Khali. I now wonder if vince put Khali in this for the fans who need a bathroom break or a chance to refresh their food or drink.

Wade Barrett and Justin Gabriel are the only ones I'd consider good.

The rest are average.

I'm willing to bet money that at some point during this match, Skip Sheffield and Khali will be matched up and Sheffield will end up body slamming Khali. It will just be in order to build Sheffield as this insanely strong bulldozer of a man that can physically do whatever he wants.

I'm an Otunga supporter..mainly of his size. I'll admit his wrestling skills need improvement. But worse then Khali? ...ca mon man. Anyways, all these guys can work on there ring skills but as for mic skills the ones that weren't good are getting better.

I think you'll see a lot of quick tags so that their weaknesses aren't exposed. Remember this is a tag match and not a survivor series style elimination match.

And yeah Cape, I agree Otunga is worse than Khali

Oh I didn't know that. I thought it was going to be broken up like.


1 on 1
1 on 1
2 on 2

then to cap it all off
Cena vs Barrett.

They could still turn Cena heel now then. Hart gets tagged in, has the sharpshooter on Barrett, and cena hits hart with a chair to the back.

Yeah, that's definitely not something I'd be risking.

Otunga is NOT worse in the ring than Khali. Anyone that can actually move with any quickness at all can't possibly be worse than Khali. To say otherwise is just nonsense.

Khali was an exaggeration, but otunga is the worst out of the nxt group imo.

I would say it's probably a tie between Otunga and Darren Young. Otunga has the edge on the mic though, so Young is overall the worst (most useless) member of Nexus.

In terms of pure in-ring ability Otunga maybe slightly ahead. But because Khali is so big his offense is much more convincing and he doesn't necessarily need the move set that Otunga does. So while Otunga may be a 4 in terms of pure in-ring ability while Khali is a 3, his size more than makes up for that difference

I hope, whether with interference or not, Shaemus retains. I'm not even a huge fan of his, but it's ridiculous that he's already a two-time WWE champion.

On a scale of 1 to 10, Khali is a 0. Otunga is probably a 1, maybe a 2.

The vets' team is really a 5 man team. Khali is just there for the intimidation factor while Bret is there for the star power. Cena, Edge, Jericho, Morrison and Truth is more than enough in-ring ability though,

The Nexus is sorely lacking in in-ring ability. Barrett is the only WWE level in-ring talent at the moment. Gabriel is next but he's still mostly a one-trick pony. Sheffield, Young, Slater and Tarver are all mediocre and Otunga is terrible. The WWE should be kicking themselves really hard about now for getting rid of Danielson who would've added an immense amount of ability to this match.
