4. RETRIBUTION Does Bare Minimum

After teasing a big statement, RETRIBUTION returned to Raw on Monday night and… beat up Tucker and Ricochet.

Yep, that was the mayhem we got from a faction that desperately needed to make a statement. It was about on par with tossing two cinderblocks through the same window. No harsh promo from Mustafa Ali, no vicious attack and dragging Ricochet off, just a simple beating. Nia Jax lays in a tougher beating to Lana each week than RETRIBUTION issued on Monday.

It’s as if WWE decided they needed to show that this gang of masked goofs were capable of winning a five-on-two beatdown, so they did as little as possible. Otherwise, this was pointless.
