Mace And T-BAR debuted their new face paint on tonight’s WWE RAW broadcast.
As noted, the former RETRIBUTION members defeated Drew McIntyre and Braun Strowman by DQ on last week’s show, in a match that saw McIntyre and Strowman remove their masks and do away with them. Tonight’s show saw Strowman start off by demanding a 2-on-1 Handicap Match instead of the advertised tag team match.
That 2-on-1 bout ended in a disqualification after Mace And T-BAR stomped Strowman out. McIntyre made the save and that led to the tag team match, which ended with McIntyre getting counted out to give T-BAR and MACE the win.
The Strowman – McIntyre feud continued during the show as Strowman defeated McIntyre in the main event to earn a spot in the WrestleMania Backlash main event with McIntyre and WWE Champion Bobby Lashley.
Regarding Mace and T-BAR, they came out for the opener without their masks, but with new face paint. Mace upgraded his paint while T-BAR is now sporting white, black and red streaks down his face. This is similar to the paint that he wore a while back in the group. T-BAR is also now wrestling in trunks.
Most of the fan comparisons on Twitter tonight had Mace And T-BAR looking like The Ascension.
It will be interesting to see if WWE books another match with Mace And T-BAR vs. Strowman and McIntyre after tonight’s count out win.
