Evolution PPV Thread
 

Let's all watch Vince McMahon's booking torpedo this thing so he can claim it's the women's fault for not grabbing the brass ring.

Looking forward to this.

also can't wait to see Madusa back in the ring.

Different from the RAW/SD set

the 1st hyman girl and pre diva

Hell yes.

Getting a bit of an NXT vibe from its design.

Also a bit lazy or low effort for something meant to be very historic but then again supposedly WWE never actually cared about this event and just wanted something for Steph to brag about on tv and take the heat off their Saudi deal.

Don't know how to feel about the MYC ending tonight. Kinda hoped to binge watch the whole tourney spoiler-free but that's out the window.

Looking forward to the show overall though, especially in comparison to this Friday's show.

Was this included in Tipsters?

Why is Kay's sponsoring this? #sexist

Wow @ still fairly new mom Maria being in the battle royal. She looked won't win but that is awesome.

You're right, it should be sponsored by Just For Men. :shifty:

Lol at the bella's promo. The only reason why she held the title so long is. everybody already knows that.

R.I.P Nikki Bella.

Is this seriously going to be a 4+ hour show? I just turned it on thinking the preshow started at 7

Probably going to laugh if this event actually starts off with a Steph promo boasting how great WWE is for no longer treating their women stars like crap and some BS about listening to crowds.

copyright warning @ beginning of PPVs always brings back memories of watching WWF PPVs on VHS

Here we go

Alice Cooper guitar chick!

:lol: at the production botch right at the start.

Guitar

Is that Travis Barker?

This sucks

Is this the same band who did the Mae Young Classic theme song?

Lzzy Hale from Halestorm. hell yeah.

Who's ready to rate some second rate wrestling?

This political garbage makes me want to barf. Why can't we just have a damn wrestling show???

Why is Gong Show Cole doing this show?

Pretty cool looking Bull Nakano shirt Beth is wearing.

Bull NakanakakakakakakaNO

Lilian Garcia looking good

Team Bestie Vs. Team In Your Dreams opening the PPV ouch.

I hope this PPV is a failure. It's time to stop pretending that women's wrestling is good enough to hold it's own event. It's not.

All of these ladies would be much happier as valets or housewives.

Have a bad feeling about this PPV now after that "rock and roll" opening

Let's go Alicia!

Lita still has one of the most blood pumping opening themes in the company fight me.

I wish gertner was here so you and he could do running commentary

Lots of house work not being completed tonight. I hope they all asked their husbands permission for tonight

Wtf is Mickie wearing

This is going to be like watching the WNBA.

We got next!

Yeah, but it is pretty dumb they still censor it on a show on their own Network.

1 Alexa Bliss is absolutely right about Alicia Fox.
2. Why is she dressed like The Hunger Games announcer

Is it because there's actually an audience here for this one

Wonder if the arena is "empty"... Really dark...

Heard it was mostly a sell out

nxt crowd lighting, very dark in the crowd

what I prefer

Dreams do come true

I think a ton of them were sold to scalpers who were "taking a bath"

Wrestling is supposed to look like that. No fans only the ring.

Fuck... hope Renee Young doesn't start doing the "OH" thing after every move... Going 2 get into my head and make this unwatchable

Pretty much the same thing as she usually does. I was more wondering about the stuff Alexa is wearing as an outer layer.

Thus a sellout.

Wrestling should really only have women as valets to be honest. They are taking up valuable ring time from the men.

Trish looks like she could probably wrestle semi regularly

Lita..no

This should have been one-on-one. Have Lita in the battle royal

ok but I was talking about the arena being empty... @SlickyTrickyDamon

Holyshit

Team Bestie just threw some shade on Brie Mode.

According to the Observer's Bryan Alvarez, WWE supposedly has a lot of filler planned for this event based on match times. Like possibly up to a third of this event could be just on video packages and interviews.

Trish Stratus currently proving that she's still better than more than half of today's main roster

There are 38 women wrestling... they kept saying "over 50 women" so wonder if there will be more matches or if they're just counting the commentators and stuff

Other NXT women supposed to be at the show also, but nothing announced for them so far

I think it's just poorly lit right now. Crowd seems really loud so far. I doubt there's many if any empty seats unless they're piping in noise.

The Backyard Wrestling thread have better wrestling than what you'll be seeing tonight

Trish outfit kinda looks like Seth Rollins stuff

Toni Storm's ass should be the main event.

Nicole Bass and Chyna were okay as "body guards".

Maybe the NXT Women's Championship match is made a "lumberjill" match last minute?

Is January a long long time Micro Cole?

Renee Young sucks on commentary,,,

"can't handle" this, just want to mute it

Yeah im with this. I only want to be able to see a few rows up front ideally

Actually thought that about the way Lita has her name displayed on her tights.

Lol

That was a count of four ref.

Lita didn't break her neck yay

:lol: at the ref botch

Those guys take some real risks. I'd never jump off my roof.

Lol thy showed the ref botch on the replay in a worse angle

Botchamania

Mickie James oversoldl tonight like she was possessed by Dolph Ziggler

How much money would they have made if this was all just lingerie matches and mud wrestling?

ANSWER: ALL THE MONEY

I can't wait fir Charlotte vs Becky next probably

Another production botch with the mics tonight. Like 3rd or 4th one so far.

Brie is the Triple H of the women's division

Evolution is a mystery

Becky vs Charlotte
Mae Young classic
Kairi sane vs. Shayna baszler

Reasons to watch the rest of this show

Nah. You could put up 80's/90's AJW against anything. It can be done.

That said, this is not 80's/90's AJW.

All 20 entrances? Does the match last longer than the entrances

One of the Legends should win so they can ignore the title match stip

Oh boy three guesses who's winning this one

Nice of WWE to bring out the Spanish table for tonight. No better way to promote wrestling equality than to have a woman wrestler get sent through one tonight.

I #StandWithCarmella #CarmellaStrong

Alundra Blayze looks great.

How do you know it won't be the German table destroyed?

Tamina hasn't stayed off the injured list long enough to acquire a Titantron that doesn't have anything on it other than her name

Because pissing off Germans is never a good idea

Molly looking pretty butch tonight.

All the more reason to send Lana through it in this match.

Ivory looks great for sure.

Wonder why Maryse isn't in it
