Apparently Vince really was serious at one point of turning the Revival into a comedic team for their remaining months in the company.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reported in December 2019 that there were plans to turn The Revival into a comedy team, which began with Dash Wilder tripping during his entrance. The idea didn't go anywhere and The Revival were slowly taken off television.
Cassidy Haynes of Bodyslam.net independently confirmed the report and received photos of the new gear that were pitched to Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder.
According to Haynes, Vince McMahon personally handed these images to The Revival.
