— The plan for Ronda Rousey still appears to be to face Nikki Bella at Evolution with the idea that the first all-women’s PPV would be headlined by the company’s two biggest mainstream women stars. After that, the tentative plan is for Rousey to face Charlotte Flair at next year’s WrestleMania but it should be cautioned that neither match is locked in.
— One of the reasons that WWE is going with the Alexa Bliss vs. Trish Stratus match at the Evolution PPV is because internally, Bliss has been “patterned after the heel version of Stratus.” It is also being said that WWE decided to just announce the match at NXT TakeOver without much promotion is because they wanted to jumpstart ticket sales since that event will be held in the same region.
