Mustafa Ali recently blasted "senior citizens" for returning during the most lucrative portion of WWE's year to hoover up opportunities he believes should go to "hardworking" full-timers. That, ladies and gents, sounds like the basis for a feud between Retribution's leader and John Cena.

It could be career-making for Ali.

He's overlooked despite being one hell of a promo man, and his hockey-mask wearing gang are simply laughable by this point. Still, a WrestleMania rivalry with someone the stature of Cena could be just the tonic to turn Mustafa into one of the best heels on the roster.

Those Retribution goons are ripe for a pasting from a superhero like John, but...then the bell would ring in Tampa. Imagine what Cena could do with someone as athletic as adaptable as Ali - look back to his bouts with Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles in the past for a little preview of what this one could be like.
