Mustafa Ali Opens Up About Retribution’s Failure And Vince McMahon’s Role

Former WWE star Mustafa Ali appeared on Insight With Chris Van Vliet, where he discussed various topics, including the infamous RETRIBUTION storyline on the WWE main roster and why it ultimately failed.

Ali said, “Did I know it was going to fail? I know we had our work cut out for us. I know the names weren’t pleasant, the masks weren’t pleasant, and it was kind of even more frustrating because there were so many talented individuals underneath these things. I had tried to save Retribution and Vince approved it at first but it just never made air. Retribution failed because there wasn’t a why, there was never a why, Vince lost interest in it, not my story to tell. There was a power struggle between people and Retribution was affected because of that.”
