[edit] Production
[edit] Background
Retaliation is a recurring professional wrestling event that was established by WIW in 1999. It was held annually from 1999 to 2009, but was then discontinued until it was reinstated in 2016 and has been held every year since, except in 2019. The original concept of the event was based around the backlash from WIW's flagship event, SuperBrawl. The events between 2016 and 2020 did not carry this theme; however, the 2021 show returned the event to its original concept.
On March 16, 2025, WIW announced that the 20th Retaliation, promoted as "Retaliation Helena", would take place on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at the Shopko Center in Helena, Montana, and feature wrestlers from the Rage and ShowDown brand divisions.
