On this week’s RAW, Mustafa Ali revealed some details about RETRIBUTION. The most interesting part of it has to be the names and masks of the individual members. Like WWE Universe, former 24/7 Champion, R-Truth, had a lot to ask the leader, Mustafa Ali.

Ali appeared on RAW Talk for a post-event interview. Notably, RETRIBUTION attacked Tucker and Ricochet after their match tonight.

Ali explained that he didn’t want to be an escape from reality but a reminder of reality.

Truth asked Ali what Batman ever did to Retribution for them to be wearing Bane masks. This is something the fans have noticed from the beginning. Ali retorted, “You’re gonna make fun of their names? That’s real funny coming from a guy named R-Truth.”

He continued, “Let me tell you why the members of RETRIBUTION look the way they look and have the names they have. Imagine being judged by your name. Imagine being mocked because of how you look. Now, imagine a guy named Mustafa Ali that gave the members of RETRIBUTION names and masks so that they can feel what he feels. So that they, too, can be judged by their names and how they look. It’s a crazy concept, isn’t it?”
