On the latest episode of , Barrett mentioned that it was a 'dumb' idea not to allow the faction into the locker room. "Genuinely it was one of the dumbest things that I've experienced in my time in WWE." Barrett continued: "We were attacking all the other superstars constantly so it kinda made sense.

"The problem I had with it is you're not actually filming us changing inside the locker room. You're not filming the locker room itself. So, nobody has any clue that we're changing in hallways instead of the locker room apart from the people who work within the company. So why are we doing this?" [30:40 - 31:45]

The Nexus entered the WWE locker room months after their debut

During the discussion, Barrett mentioned they were only allowed back into the locker rooms after the faction split. After 6-7 months, when the stable split into the New Nexus and The Corre, the talent was changing gears in the locker rooms. "It was probably when Nexus kind of broke apart around the end of December 2010 which was probably 6-7 months into our run. Few of us moved over to SmackDown as The Corre and that was the point, 'Okay, you guys are now eligible to step into the locker room.' Man, what a big payoff that was, you guys really enhanced the storyline. Thank you guys." [32:18 - 32:44] The greatest group ever in wwe history?!!
