A lot of excitement exists around Retribution, WWE's new faction

#2 Retribution should not only be comprised of WWE NXT stars alone

Now I'm not posting spoilers because I'm not an "insider" or have a "source" in WWE...But I saw that one of the members of RETRIBUTION has curly hair...And then I remembered...Vanessa Bourne hasnt been on NXT in over a year...maybe she's involved.#SmackDown pic.twitter.com/KeTEA4uW68

Sure, having Aliyah, or Chelsea Green, or even Vanessa Borne, who is almost a certainty at this stage, would be a massive deal for Retribution as a stable but the group should not only comprise of Superstars from WWE NXT. In fact, if it is possible, Retribution should be led by stars who may have been released/furloughed during the pandemic and the foremost name I can think of, for this role, is Rusev. He goes by the name Miro now and is yet unsigned to any promotion (his wife works in WWE as well).

In fact, if it is possible, Retribution should be led by someone like Kurt Angle, someone who could have done much more for the company, considering that it is well documented that he was dissatisfied with his latest WWE run.

In fact, former stars such as Darren Young could return in a Nexus reunion of sorts, considering the parallels between the former WWE faction and its new incarnation- Retribution.
