According to PWI, there was another buyer interested in purchasing EVOLVE but got blocked by WWE who had first rights for a deal due to a clause they put in their partnership deal with EVOLVE.
Also EVOLVE's owner Gabe Sapolsky got hired by WWE to join their NXT Creative team as part of the deal to purchase EVOLVE.
People joked for years that when Sapolsky made that initial deal, he was going to bolt for WWE at the very first chance to do so and that ended up happening, albeit for a genuine reason.
