  Composite vector resonances in the triplet of the SM SU$(2)_{L}$ gauge group
are a universal prediction of "natural" new physics models involving a new
strongly-interacting sector and are therefore among the most plausible new
particles that the LHC could discover. We consider the possibility that one
such triplet could account for the ATLAS excess in the invariant-mass spectrum
of boson-tagged jets and we assess the compatibility of this hypothesis with
all other relevant resonance searches. We find that the hypothesis is not
excluded and that the predicted signal is close to the expected sensitivity of
several channels, some of which show an upper fluctuation of the observed limit
while others do not. An accurate study of the signal compatibility with these
fluctuations could only be performed by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations.
