Wade Barrett, a former WWE wrestler and current SmackDown commentator, humorously asserted that his previous faction, The Corre, never had a leader, responding to a WWE birthday post that referred to him as such. He tweeted, 'FALSE. The Corre had no leader; it was made up of four equals. (all equally crap if we’re being honest).' Barrett's time with The Corre, formed in 2011 after his departure from The Nexus, was marked by brief success, including winning the Intercontinental Championship, but the group was dissolved shortly after. His lighthearted comments reflect on the nature of the faction, which consisted of Barrett, Heath Slater, Justin Gabriel, and Ezekiel Jackson. Barrett's legacy in wrestling continues as he provides commentary alongside Corey Graves on SmackDown.
