Vince’s words fired Ali. He asked Vince to put him on the main event where he could slowly turn himself into a heel through his matches. He said, “I’ll still be presented as a babyface, I’ll still come out with the same look, I’ll still shake the guy’s hand at the end of the matches,” Ali said in his pitch to McMahon.

“But there’s a moment in the match where I’ve just had enough. And I did it! If you go back and watch these Main Event matches before I was revealed as the leader of RETRIBUTION, those were actually me auditioning to turn heel.”

During the time of Retribution, Ali proved to be the heel. A year before, he revealed himself as the leader of Retribution.
