As mentioned in the last slide, WWE booked a subtle moment in their show where it looked like Cedric Alexander wasn't on the same page as his Hurt Business teammates.

As for RETRIBUTION, a similar angle was booked on the same episode in a slightly less subtle manner.

Reckoning had attacked Dana Brooke before WWE Survivor Series, and Brooke made it clear this week that she didn't forget that ambush at all.

As Reckoning and Dana Brooke faced each other in singles action, Reckoning's mask came off right away. Some would classify this as a huge botch, even though any sane-minded adult was aware of the fact that Reckoning was Mia Yim all along.

A bigger and more dangerous botch was Jeff Hardy's Swanton bomb on Elias during their Symphony of Destruction match this week, where The Charismatic Enigma's head hit the steel steps outside the ring.

Although Hardy's penchant for risky stunts remains the same even to this day, incidents like this could lead to long-term consequences for a man of his age.

Coming back to RETRIBUTION, Dana Brooke was able to pick up a victory against Reckoning. This angered Mustafa Ali, who felt that Reckoning failed and embarrassed him.

According to Ali, there is no room for failure in RETRIBUTION, which seems ironic since they have lost quite frequently ever since the anti-WWE faction started wreaking havoc on RAW and SmackDown.
