WWE Reveals The Name of New Faction That Debuted During Raw

WWE is set to reveal a new faction soon, and now we know what the name for the group will be. There were teases throughout Monday Night Raw on Monday night about the new faction, which even appeared on screen though all of the members were wearing hoodies and masks. Early and throughout the show, there were power outages on the broadcast. We then found out that the reason for the outages was that the new faction had gone outside the WWE Performance Center and lit up a power generator with molotov cocktails.

The group celebrated the explosion, though as mentioned, we couldn't see the identity of any of the members. This was given as the explanation for the power blips (including lighting issues) and microphone outages throughout the show.

WWE.com has confirmed that the name of the group will be Retribution. We still don't know the identities, which are being kept secret for now in order to draw viewer interest to the shows until the big reveal happens. As of now, there are five members in the group.

Per WWE.com:

Chaos reigned on Monday night's edition of Raw, and we now know the name of the group behind it.

The lights were cut out at several points during the show, including the United States Championship Match between Apollo Crews and MVP, as well as audio issues leading to microphone trouble for several Superstars throughout the night. Many thought the technical glitches were due to a storm in the area, but security footage revealed later in the night told a different story.

Video showed a group of masked assailants tossing Molotov cocktails at the WWE Performance Center's power generator, setting it on fire.

WWE.com has learned that the faction behind the attack is calling themselves RETRIBUTION.

Little else is known about RETRIBUTION, aside from the fact that causing chaos seems to be their sole motivation.

Just who is RETRIBUTION, and what is their ultimate goal? Find out by tuning into Raw, every Monday at 8/7 C on USA Network!
