Retribution for Napoleon? Them dudes are tiny. 

I think people picked out Ciampa, Carmella and Vanessa Bourne whoever that is. If Ciampa really is in this I'm gonna scratch my head. Debut by waving their weapons around and awkwardly pacing about ... great.

Someone mentioned the guy talking to the camera might've been Joaquin Wilde. Of course that means he's just a placeholder since he's already apart of Legado Del Fantasma lol

Kinda like when Deonna Purrazzo was La Luchadora for weeks before they unmasked her as Mickie James lol

Damn that Retribution thing was pretty wild. I’d honestly say they caused more chaos than the Nexus tbh. 
 

My biggest pet peeve though is they look like a bunch of high schoolers lol. They’re sooooo short. I honestly have no idea who anyone is though.

One of them did sound like Carmella. I would be cool with Ciampa being like the leader but I don’t want him being one of the ones running around like that

There’s been a lot of online speculation on who the masked men and women were in the RETRIBUTION invasion of Friday’s WWE SmackDown episode, and if the same people were used for the debut parking lot angle on last Monday’s RAW.

It was reported by Dave Meltzer on Sunday Night’s Main Event podcast that the people used under the masks and hoods on SmackDown were not the wrestlers who will be playing the actual characters when the RETRIBUTION members are revealed. Meltzer noted that this was told to him outright.

There has been speculation on Tommaso Ciampa and Dominik Dijakovic possibly being affiliated with RETRIBUTION after their social media accounts were blacked out last week, but many fans pointed to how none of the people used on SmackDown resembled Ciampa or Dijakovic. There was a lot of negative attention brought to the fact that most of the people used on SmackDown seemed to be smaller in size, closer to the build of someone like The Singh Brothers than someone like Dijakovic.

There’s also been a lot of speculation that Vanessa Borne was the key female talent under a mask on SmackDown, based on her hair and other factors. Meltzer speculated that during the RETRIBUTION attack angle in the crowd of developmental trainees on SmackDown, WWE went through some extra effort to show that a female member of the group was attacking the female developmental trainee, so it wouldn’t look like a man was attacking a woman.

Borne has been planned for a main roster call-up from WWE NXT for a few months now and because of that, there is some extra speculation on her being used for the invasion angle on SmackDown. It should be noted again that just because WWE used a wrestler for the masked invasion on SmackDown, that does not mean they will be used as a member of the group when they are all revealed.

It’s been reported that members of the RETRIBUTION stable are being kept close to the vest by top WWE officials, and will not be immediately revealed. There’s no word yet on how long they plan to go without revealing the men and women behind the masks.

It’s likely that we will see more from RETRIBUTION on this week’s RAW.

Stay tuned for updates on the new faction.
