💥 WWE Evolution 2 Announcement Sparks Mixed Feelings Backstage
WWE made waves by announcing the long-awaited return of WWE Evolution, its all-women's premium live event, scheduled for July 13, 2025, at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta. While fans celebrated the comeback, the backstage response has been far from unanimous.
Talent Caught Off Guard
WWE talents reportedly learned about Evolution 2 at the same time as the public during a broadcast of Saturday Night’s Main Event. Only a handful of top-tier women wrestlers and legends were informed in advance — a move that left many others surprised and frustrated.
🗣️ “We’re proud to headline, but we deserve better communication,” said one unnamed superstar.
📆 Event Timing Questioned
A major point of concern is the clash with Beyoncé’s concert in Atlanta around the same time. Talent worry the competing event may reduce crowd attendance and give WWE a reason not to pursue such events in the future.
😓 Concerns of Tokenism
Some performers recall the "curtain call" after the 2018 Evolution, where all women were brought to the ring post-event. While it was meant as a tribute, some viewed it as patronizing, pointing out that such gestures aren’t extended to male headliners.
💭 Overcrowded Calendar Worries
WWE’s packed schedule of Premium Live Events (PLEs) is another worry. With so many events lined up, some talents fear Evolution 2 might not get the promotion and buildup it deserves.
🌟 A Ray of Hope?
Not all responses were negative. Veterans are optimistic the show could offer underutilized talent a shot at the spotlight. With a potential mix of legends and emerging superstars, Evolution 2 still has the potential to be iconic — if managed well.
