Its almost time for WWE's first ever all women's pay per view

Of course the pay per view is marred in a little bit of controversy since the male superstars are set to travel to Saudi Arabia for the crown Jewel pay per view, which points to WWE only doing this out of fairness, but that doesn't means its not going to be awesome. In fact, WWE already has a decently stacked card that is sure to thrill even the most skeptical of fans.

Furthermore, between matches like Becky Lynch versus Charlotte Flair, Ronda Rousey versus Nikki Bella, Alexa Bliss and Mickie James versus Lita and Trish Stratus, and Kairi Sane versus Shayna Baszler there is bound to be something for everyone when Evolution goes live on October 28th.

With that being said, WWE still has some work to do if they want to make this pay per view the best it can be and they only have the next couple of weeks to do so. In the end, however, WWE will need to do the following five things to make sure their first-ever women's pay per view is up to snuff for their viewing audience.


#5 Put Asuka in a two on one handicap match with The Iconics

WWE needs to start showcasing Asuka again and that starts with booking her in a two on one handicap match against The Iconics at Evolution. All WWE has to do is have The Iconics lay a particularly bad beat down on Naomi before the pay per view and then have Asuka challenge them to a match to defend Naomi's honor.

Not only will this create a handicap match where Asuka can showcase her talents, but it also really helps the fans get behind her as an underdog as well. Beyond that, it gives Asuka the momentum she needs after being misused for months and could be enough to set up a heel turn in the future on Naomi.

#4 Keep Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch apart

Charlotte Flair versus Becky Lynch just has a big fight feel to it and WWE further capitalized on that momentum by adding a last women standing stipulation to the match. While that is a great way to add to the feud, especially since this might be their last match, it's also important that the company keeps these two apart before the match takes place.

In fact, there seems to be no better way to help build up for this match than to watch these two women try to go at it the next couple of weeks. Not only will doing so allow for fans to see just how far these two can take the last women standing stipulation, but it also creates a chaotic nature that will excite fans to no end leading up to the pay per view.

In the end, WWE needs to build up the tension with these two stars and do a few promo segments. Maybe have security keep them separated during the promo segments and then have all hell break lose at the last possible moment. At least that would add more tension to the match and help showcase it as the volatile title bout it deserves to be seen as.

#3 Set up a number one contenders match for both women's titles

There's just something about number one contender's matches that gets fans blood boiling in excitement and that is exactly what WWE needs at the Evolution pay per view. That's why WWE needs to announce a pair of number one contenders match for The Raw and Smackdown Live titles.

Not only does this allow more female superstars to shine on the first ever all women's pay per view, it also sets up both brands for a title match at an upcoming pay per view. With being said, WWE might also want to consider making them Triple threat matches, which will allow even more women to take part and gives the company some leeway in how they book the finishes.

As for who should take part in these number one contenders matches, Nia Jax versus Natayla versus Ruby Riott would be a great match on The Raw side of things and Carmella versus Sonya Deville versus Asuka would be a barn burner of a match. Interestingly enough, this would also set up both shows with some pretty great options moving forward title wise.

#2 Book Stephanie McMahon in a match

Let's be honest here.

There is no way in hell WWE can pass up on the opportunity to have Stephanie McMahon compete at The Evolution pay per view. Furthermore, if WWE does decide to pass up the opportunity for one reason or another, they are making a decision that could hurt the overall quality of the pay per view

While that might sound a little ridiculous, especially since there are a multitude of other women that can fill this role, there are none that could fill it quite like McMahon. In fact, its very surprising that WWE didn't already try to set up a Ronda Rousey versus Stephanie McMahon, which would have probably been huge for the company.

With that being said, WWE needs to give McMahon some kind of once in a lifetime role at the upcoming pay per view. Whether that is a match with an up and coming star, an established star or a retired superstar is up to The WWE, but they need to do something with McMahon at this pay per view!

#1 Make Nikki Bella look like a threat

Nikki Bella might have shocked The WWE Universe and beat down the baddest women on the planet while her back was turned, but that doesn't necessarily mean she can stand toe to toe with her in an actual match. In fact, now WWE must do the dirty deed of making Bella look like a threat to Rousey and her title, which could be difficult to pull off.

Not only is that evident by the short amount of time WWE has to do this, but also by how illegitimate of a competitor Bella looks like compared to Rousey. Furthermore, Bella has been largely out of action for months now, which could make it even harder for WWE to make this match look legitimate.

In the end, Bella needs another sneak attack on Rousey and she needs to make sure it hurts. In fact, Nikki needs to target a specific body part which should help believably slow Rousey down during their match. Of course, there are other ways they can do this, but an injury angle might be the best way to showcase Bella's brutality and make the match believable.
