#4. Mustafa Ali - A fresh start in WWE post-RETRIBUTION?

Did Mustafa Ali's heel turn fail?
Did Mustafa Ali's heel turn fail?

When Mustafa Ali turned heel in WWE for the first time and revealed himself to be the leader of RETRIBUTION, things seemed interesting. It was a different direction for Mustafa Ali and a big break away from his normal babyface character.

However, RETRIBUTION turned out to be the most underwhelming WWE faction in years - and that's saying a lot. It's perhaps because WWE put a lot of effort into the initial stages of RETRIBUTION, building a mysterious aura around the group. It didn't pan out. Week after week, Mustafa Ali and his faction would be on the losing end of things.

The group died a slow but sure death, and it was T-BAR and MACE who set themselves apart while the faction abandoned their leader. The big question is as to what's next for Mustafa Ali in WWE. There are a lot of different possibilities, but a face turn might be the best direction for him to go in.
