The thing is, it could only be 4 people; Rusev Rowan Aiden English No Way Jose Since the rest are either a) signed elsewhere b) likely to sign elsewhere or c) retired or unable to wrestle right now.

Would’ve been neat if they called them The Message to tie them back to the Hackerman.

I was really counting on it being some members of Undisputed Era at least. Hmm.
But now I want No Way Jose to carry Molotov Cocktails as his signature prop! He'll show 'em!

Also reading through it all again...
They don’t know much about this group, they don’t know how they got the faction name and they don’t know the intentions of the group besides this one action.
For a company that created and built up some of the greatest factions and stables in wrestling history...the half assed nature of all this is astonishing.

Imagine if the faction’s name was revealed via a manifesto that the group themselves release, rather than the WWE site telling us this.

Hmm, Retribution is a more formal way of saying Payback.

For a company that created and built up some of the greatest factions and stables in wrestling history...the half assed nature of all this is astonishing. It really goes back to the talk about not obeying the logic of ones own company at all there are so many f***ing holes in this factions introduction. First off WHY in the f*** is the company publicly promoting a faction that is suppose to be causing chaos etc secondly you have footage of this group THROWING MOLOTOVS!...oh the cops can be right on the scene for Jeff Hardy but a group who is on the premisis throwing gawd damn molotovs...we will let that slide and even actively promote them even before they even show up on the show. This entire introduction is indicitive of everything everyone says about WWE having no f***ing clue what they are doing.

it's Adam Cole, Roderick Strong, Super Dragon, and The Young Bucks. they'll go to attack someone, Kevin Owens will make the save but it turns out he's the leader. Mount Rushmore: The Retribution

- Barely. Some minor technical issues which hardly affected anything
- Because you only just came up with it?
- Makes it sound like some kind of paralysing blackout, really wasn't anything like that
- For like a second at a time and only when it was convenient for the angle (KO asking for technical issues when IIconics were being annoying, MVP when the lighting was distracting)
- "Many"? Could've fooled me
- What, 30 seconds of questionable and hastily produced "security footage" that provided nearly zero understanding?
- What kind of generator was that then? Clearly one that's very resistant to fire, given the technical issues were incredibly minimal
- Because you haven't written it yet?
- Call me when they do something genuinely chaotic
- Why didn't you tell me that yesterday, you know, when you had me watching the "chaotic" show to see this new "faction" you told me would be there?
(1/10)
This is unacceptably vague and fails to add intrigue or explain any previous events. See me after class.

Will they be revealed one at a time over several months like Aces and 8’s?

I hope it’s Alexandre Wolfe, Nikki Cross, and Killian Dain. That would be a fun stable. But who would their leader be?

Nah, probably "security footage" of different stuff they do to try (and clearly fail) to sabotage the show for a few weeks, like molotovs this week, next week maybe trying to cut the cables to the production truck, the week after that... I dunno, trying to tamper with the ring or something. Then nothing. They'll just... completely forget it ever happened. Then in a month or two, a couple of members intended to be part of the group will show up in NXT or something, no mention of the faction, and a couple of dirtsheets will reveal that plans for the two who just showed up again in NXT were that they would be part of Retribution but that plans changed, so now they're just generic dudes in trunks again.
They have a history of doing prerecorded vignettes like that, only to completely screw the pooch when it comes to turning that into an active part of the show, and instead just ditching whatever was going to happen for some reason.

I thought Rusev retired after his release?
