Sarah Stock and Mike Rotunda (IRS) have been let go by WWE

sarah stock was just helping out in the perfomance centre so it's not a big loss.

Serena still has it, I bet Sarah Stock still does too, should be picked up by AEW for any fed...

big gain for somebody else though.
i'd love to see dark angel, lufisto, and cheerleader melissa come into aew as a group of angry veterans.

I wonder if she sees Mercedes Martinez (same age) getting a mini-push on NXT and wondering if that could have been her?

[QUOTE] Honestly, I don't think WWE has put that much thought into what Retributions motives are supposed to be. The entire story has felt very scattershot so far.
[/QUOTE]
Retribution is either going to become irrelevant or *too* relevant (polemical) in the next 6 months. Best way to handle them is to have them get routed in a massive brawl during a slow week on "Raw". Maybe let them be subsumed in to Shane McMahon's well-mannered (but still outlaw) Underground.

Imagine if Retribution actually had performers that we care about. Wrestlers who don't fit the WWE image and don't their "push".
Imagine if Retribution was
Sami Zayn
Mustafa Ali
The Riott Squad
Maybe led by Joe or Kevin Owens.
A bunch of random NXT wrestlers is going to fail.

In theory we don't initially need to care about ALL of them... if they can get just ONE we can really be emotionally invested in, the rest can build off around that. A Samoa Joe for example, who was hiding in plain this whole time at the announce book can probably make this work.

Sounds a lot like Brodie Lee leading the Dark Order.

I didn't give a crap about Nexus or The Shield when they first debuted, but they did things and were charismatic enough (In Nexus's case a few of them were) that made me want to see more of them.
In wrestling, you really need that big thing to make a good first impression, if you don't, it's going to be tough. Because they've been so scattershot in their motives and interference they do need a big reveal I think to get people to care. The leader has to be someone we know. If their members are random people on the mid to low end of the card, we'll assume it's just another mid-card repackaging. They have to actually want something too.

Have it be Husky Harris.
Every time Bray gets hit with a DDT, his personality changes.
Hehe.

You just made me have this weird thought of a six man tag w. only two ppl, as Husky Harris, Bray Wyatt, and the Fiend take on Dude Love, Cactus Jack and Mankind. :eek:

That can actually be done with cinematic wrestling.
