I read a recap that said Retribution signed WWE contracts. Did they say that on the show? Cause that'd be hilarious.

Yes, and apparently the fact they signed contracts means they're now free to do whatever they want to whoever they want.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Raw Results 9/21:
  • Detailed Results here.
  • Five members of Retribution arrived, apparently they have Raw contracts now which means they can do whatever they want to whoever they want. They were wearing masks which made it entirely clear who they were.
  • Hurt Business came out and Retribution ran away, then came back with reinforcements and beat up Hurt Business.
  • Jerry Lawler was back on commentary.
  • Recently broken up tag team Andrade & Angel Garza defeated other recently broken up tag team Rollins & Murphy and newly formed tag team Dominik Mysterio & Humberto Carrillo to earn a tag team titleshot.
  • Retribution (who have signed contracts to get money from WWE) backstage continued to mock wrestlers who took money from WWE.
  • Braun Strowman and Dabba-Kato faced off on The KO Show, whose guest was Shane McMahon. Aleister Black, whose eye is hurt again this week, assaulted Kevin Owens' dick.
  • WWE Champion Drew McIntyre did a promo about how he would beat Keith Lee tonight.
  • Keith Lee vs WWE Champion Drew McIntyre in a non-title match ended by DQ when Randy Orton attacked McIntyre just before he was about to win.
  • Asuka mocked Peyton Royce and Billie Kay who both showed up backstage to challenge her to a match tonight.
  • Zelina Vega defeated Mickie James - who still wants another title shot - in less than 5 minutes. Clean.
  • Hurt Business beat up some Retribution extras backstage.
  • R-Truth ran away from a shark at the beach. Akira Tozawa was maybe eaten by the shark?
  • Apollo Crews defeated Cedric Alexander in a singles match. Hurt Business beat up Crews and Ricochet postmatch.
  • Dolph Ziggler beat Arturo Ruas on Raw Underground. Braun Strowman threatened to beat everyone up.
  • Seth Rollins did a bizarre segment where he claimed Rey Mysterio's daughter wasn't his daughter, and Mysterio told him to gently caress off (not exact phrasing!).
  • Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler defeated Lana and Nattie in a tag match. They confronted Riott Squad (on guest commentary) postmatch and Lana got put through a table again.
  • Aalyah Mysterio complained to Rey backstage that she is his large adult daughter now and can speak for herself.
  • Riddick Moss defeated Erik from the Viking Raiders on Raw Underground. Shane interviewed Dabba-Kato.
  • Asuka defeated Peyton Royce by DQ in a singles match when Zelina Vega attacked Asuka during the match.
  • Buddy Murphy told Aalyah backstage that he was sorry if he'd done anything to upset her.
  • Braun Strowman beat Dabba-Kato quickly in a Raw Underground match (both guys were gassed in like 20 seconds) and then walked over his unconscious body without a care in the world.
  • Three members of Retribution are named Slapjack, T-Bar and Mace. You think I'm lying, but I'm not. Jerry Lawler literally laughed when he heard the name Slapjack.
  • Retribution vs. Hurt Business ended in a DQ when... a member of the Retribution team broke up a submission attempt by Bobby Lashley?
  • The Raw locker room emptied out to fight off the Retribution extras who had jumped Hurt Business postmatch. Randy Orton hit Drew McIntyre with an RKO to end the show.
  • GDT Discussion here.

Before I saw your post I also saw a tweet with these names and have subsequently seen an official WWE tweet with the name "T-Bar" in it, my brain can hear Vinny V saying "T-Bar" but I'm still not positive it's real.

Gotta love when your big insurgent group debuts officially with the announcement that they’ve signed contracts with the company, their names are Slapjack, T-Bar and Mace and they lose their debut by DQ on a routine tag match spot.

At least Aces and 8s didn't look like complete geeks in their first match. There was also a segment where the entire face roster came down to fight them and A&8s just beat them all up, which was pretty hilarious.

Ahh, so that's why they had to fire all those people a while back, because they had to make room for the army of extras.

The stupidest name any of them had was Knux (which at least was close to the real guy's regular wrestling name, Mike Knox), they didn't have lovely masks, their stupidest moments were at least actually funny (Tazz asking if it was hot in here and taking off his coat to reveal the jacket), and they won their first official match (on a PPV too!)

Sorry, I went off the F4W results and they listed Keith Lee as winning the match even though their own write-up says that Orton attacked Drew, and didn't click the two didn't match up.. Will correct it now.
