While the group’s television presentation has been lacklustre at best so far, RETRIBUTION’s social media activity has been stellar in recent and months. And now, the faction has invited a major WWE name to join their shenanigans.
Seemingly impressed with his Fiend-charring ways, T-BAR took to Twitter to offer Randy Orton the chance to join RETRIBUTION.

This isn’t the first person that RETRIBUTION, and T-BAR in particular, have invited into the RETRIBUTION fold, with the stable currently in the midst of trying to convince Ricochet to join their ranks.
Consider the chances of the Viper donning some dodgy mask, relying on headache-inducing swirling camera shots for his entrance, and attacking the WWE Performance Center front door as being slim-to-none right now. But still, you can’t fault RETRIBUTION for trying.

In terms of being dead in the water, no wrestling stable in recent memory has become as limp and lame quite so swiftly as RETRIBUTION. Behind the masks, there are still some highly talented wrestlers in Dominik Dijakovic, Mia Yim and Shane Thorne, and Dio Madden has a great look to build upon. Then there’s Mustafa Ali, who has all the potential in the world to be a true star if afforded the chance.
Instead, RETRIBUTION was presented in such an awful way from the get-go that fans viewed the group as an instant turn-off barely two weeks into their run on TV.
Once described as the Swiss Army Knife of WhatCulture, Andrew can usually be found writing, editing, or presenting on a wide range of topics.
