10 WWE Wrestlers We Want To See In RETRIBUTION

Tommaso Ciampa RETRIBUTION

There’s a lot of talk about first impressions in wrestling, whether it’s notorious disasters like the Shockmaster in WCW, to incredible debuts like The Nexus. Establishing yourself to a new audience is a key to ensuring your future success, and being able to do it just from an entrance is something special. Watching Ridge Holland make his entrance last week for the triple threat with Oney Lorcan and Damian Priest, many fans had that guttural reaction of “this man has something.”

Ridge Holland has the perfect combination for superstardom in NXT: an incredibly amusing look that doesn’t make him seem stupid, a memorable name, convincing facial expressions and most importantly, he can go in the ring! He more than held his own with veterans like Lorcan and Priest, crafting a dynamite triple threat that ranks up as one of the best matches NXT’s done this year.

The former NXT UK wrestler and professional rugby player is strong, quick and can throw someone around like a ragdoll without getting gassed.

While he’s got a lot to develop on, that immediate connection makes him a prime candidate for RETRIBUTION. He could make that impression as an unforgettable bruiser to even more fans while developing mic skills and ring psychology alongside some of the most knowledgeable people in the company. Ridge Holland deserves to crush it in WWE.
