Lana doesn't have the right to bothered, lmao. This is the best thing she could be fit into for Evolution.

I understand why most of the others are annoyed by it, however. It's such a last-minute arrangement including a lot of good wrestlers who could've been part of matches with fleshed out storylines...but that doesn't seem to be the case with Evolution in general.

Jordan. 16-10-2018 10:27 PM

The entire build for Evolution has been shameful, more than obvious the whole thing is yet another PR stunt rather than them actually caring about their female talent.

Braden 16-10-2018 10:28 PM

And they seem to have plonked all the Smackdown! women apart drom Charlotte and Becky in the battle royale.

Shoddy af.

LaLaLand 16-10-2018 10:30 PM

Evolution happening = Vince trying to shut people up complaining about no women in Saudi Arabia.

I don't think they felt this would be "wanted", yet like 95% of tickets have sold out. Oops.

I'm ****ing screaming

LaLaLand 16-10-2018 11:46 PM

SD! 1000th episode begins in 15!

The Undertaker, Ric Flair & Batista (Evolution reunion), Rey Mysterio, NWO, DX and more appearing.

Brother Leon 17-10-2018 04:54 PM

The whole idea of a Female Only PPV was a stretch anyway. There was always going to be these sort of matches.

Braden 17-10-2018 04:56 PM

How, exactly?

Black Dagger 17-10-2018 05:00 PM

What were they expecting. None of them have build for anything. I'd take a battle royal over loads of thrown together tag matches.

This is what's so pissy about it, they could have done... but obv creative have decided to be lazy. None of these women were even featured on SD! 1000 last night promoting this match in the slightest way (probably punishment for the Tweets), it's totally throwaway and sucks.

Storm vs. Shirai will clearly be Match of the Night, with Lynch vs. Flair at close second I'm guessing. The NXT UK match could also be surprising.

Denver 18-10-2018 12:43 AM

LaLaLand 18-10-2018 02:07 AM

Because you can count on one hand the number of females that are truly fleshed out as Characters or receive a consistent reaction from the audience. I’m all for the Revolution and I’m on board with the rumoured WM main event too, but this whole PPV seems meh to me.

Liam- 19-10-2018 06:09 PM

Riddle’s neck is bigger than my future

Denver 19-10-2018 06:10 PM

Alundra Blaze Is part of Evoloution

LaLaLand 20-10-2018 12:08 AM

Molly Holly, Maria Kanellis, Ivory, Michelle McCool, Alundra Blayze and Kelly Kelly have been confirmed for the Evolution Battle Royal.

This is gonna be such a cluster omg that's 20 women confirmed, probably more added over the next week, Christ.

I don't agree. There are plenty of women across WWE (including Hall of Famers) and NXT that are captivating characters (not saying all, there's certainly room for improvement concerning how female wrestlers are utilized, especially in WWE), and an all-women PPV could've been really successful if it wasn't in the hands of a shoddy creative team. The interest is there, regardless, and this may (lol, it won't be but oh well) still be the ignition to see some underappreciated female wrestlers finally be heralded.

Your typical WWE-fan would've done a better job booking this PPV and making it a spectacle. I'm aware that numbers-wise a match like this was inevitable, but the battle royal and the PPV still could've been good if it was given the attention it deserved and was booked correctly.

The thing that bothers me most is that people like Ivory, Alundra Blaze, etc. could've wrestled in random single/tag matches and it would've had a better effect than them being in a battle royal that drowns them out completely (and if that needed to happen, we could've just waited to see them in next year's Royal Rumble). Same goes for the current talent; I'd rather see The IIconics (or even Absolution) in a tag match that gives them the chance to perform to the best of their ability, as opposed to a battle royal that won't give them that opportunity and which they obviously won't win.

As if the majority of the men's roster have characters that extends beyond a slogan

In a nutshell :p

LaLaLand 22-10-2018 10:06 PM

Riott Squad vs. Sasha, Bayley and Natalya added to Evolution.

Absolute bull****, we see this every week on RAW. Creative literally don't care :laugh2:

Denver 22-10-2018 10:08 PM

I reckon we could see a full on heel turn from one of them this time

Denver 22-10-2018 10:09 PM

Lita will be on Raw tonight and will apparently be part of future matches which I can see her and Trish winning the tag titles to get people chatting

LaLaLand 22-10-2018 10:10 PM

ALSO someone pointed out elsewhere...

ASUKA, the one and only, is held in the same regard as Kelly Kelly on this card. Think about that... #Creativedontcare

Denver 22-10-2018 10:13 PM

I said it months back I think Asuka will leave the WWE within a year
