may the worst gimmick win ​

 

[MenacingMonk]

Retribution flopped heavy. shyt was a waste of time.

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

i remember watching that Retribution debut where they destroy the set and performed like D list actors for 8 minutes

some of the most cringe shyt ive ever seen

 

[Silkk]

Landslide

 

[Tj Bronson]

Easily retribution

 

[Bleedin Gums Murphy]

I initially was going to roll with Retribution, but then I thought, “Well, at least Retribution had talent…that’s a redeeming quality”.

I vote Hit Row.

 

[El Guapo]

I switched back and forth, but I’ll go with Hit Row. Yeah, Retribution had guys named T-Bar and Slapjack, but they didn’t hold a concert no one asked for

 

[White City Black]

Retribution quickly morphed from something slightly intriguing to absolute trash so they win this

I don’t wanna be one of those people but…Swerve would’ve been an efficient lead for Hit Row. That’s missed. The “OG3” alone just seems like a lowly indy act

 

[Reality Check]

As bad as Hit Row is without Swerve (wasn't great with him TBH), Retribution is taking this round and it isn't even close.

 

[KFBF]

I don't remember people thinking retribution was good here. I distinctly remember people acting like hit row was good.

 

[Rell84shots]

Hit Row = Bad booking
Retribution = Bad everything

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Hit Row = Bad booking
Retribution = Bad everything

The members of Hit Row are trash and better booking wouldn't change that. One of the few times where the gimmick isn't the problem, but the talent themselves doing it.

 

[ClutchVon]

Replace Top Dolla with literally anyone & I feel like Hit Row wouldn’t be perceived as such a negative. Adonis has solid potential & BFab is coo little valet.

 

[BrehWyatt]

The PEAK version of Hit Row was solid. It is not the same without Swerve or at the very least, a true leader.

Retribution was a group of three really talented albeit underutilized people and Dio Madden, and those underutilized people became even more underutilized while in the group.

Retribution is worse, and it ain't close.

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

Retribution without a shadow of a doubt.
