There are certain things that a Superstar cannot do inside the WWE ring. One such thing is unmasking another pro-wrestler , which is one of the highest forms of disrespect. Now, Braun Strowman and Drew McIntyre battled T-BAR and Mace in a tag team match on Monday Night Raw: April 19th, 2021.
Both the teams comprised massively built men who had nothing but victory in mind. Therefore, whether it was attacking McIntyre at the same time or kicking Strowman in the face, Mace and T-BAR did not shy away from anything.

On the other hand, Drew McIntyre took the in-ring violence to the next level. He unmasked Mace and started attacking him with the mask. Braun Strowman unmasked T-BAR and did the same. This dual unmasking led to a disqualification.
To save themselves, both T-BAR and Mace fled the ring, but not before showing their faces to ‘The Monster Among Men’ and ‘The Scottish Psychopath’ from their victory stance.
It's a disqualification VICTORY for @TBARRetribution & @MACEtheWRESTLER … and perhaps a whole new chapter for these two. #WWERaw pic.twitter.com/zlHsmgOGeD

Coming to the unmasking, WWE revealed that Dio Maddin and Dominik Dijakovic were the faces underneath the black garb. However, the WWE Universe already knew this bit of information when the duo joined the havoc-causing faction, Retribution, led by Mustafa Ali.
Retribution doesn’t exist since the time the members turned on their leader. Nevertheless, T-BAR and Mace continued to wear their masks until Monday Night Raw. Now, with the masks off, they’ve finally broken free of the shackles of Retribution, or whatever was left of the stable.
Fans absolutely loved this twist, and want WWE to continue with Maddin and Dijakovic as a tag team, without the masks!
WWE might send T-BAR and Mace to a new faction
The match against Drew McIntyre and Braun Strowman wasn’t Maddin’s and Dijakovic’s first feat as a potential tag team. On the Monday Night Raw episode following WrestleMania 37, the duo attacked McIntyre after he won a triple threat match. This victory made him the number #1 contender for the WWE Championship title at Backlash 2021.

After the match, MVP came out to the arena while the former Retribution members attacked McIntyre. Even though nothing is set in stone, it’s possible Dio Maddin and Dominik Dijakovic will join The Hurt Business. In fact, with The Hurt Business short of two members, they might be the perfect addition to the stable.
