The unknown faction called Retribution debuted at the end of Smackdown tonight after causing several technical difficulties with lighting and the sound system.
Five members showed up and invaded Smackdown, chasing Michael Cole and Corey Graves up the ramp with a bat.
They then utilized bats, a crow bar, spray paint and a chain saw to destroy the ring and graffiti the barricade before breaking through and attacking the performance center trainees in the audience.
Multiple Performance Center trainees were assaulted, including a female trainee who was struck by multiple members.
Their identities remain unknown but it is expected more information will come soon. Keep checking here at Rajah.com or on our social media below for the latest updates in this new faction.
