The 2018 Evolution event was one of WWE's biggest moves for women's wrestling in its existence. Receiving an enormous amount of positive feedback, the pay-per-view was the first time that WWE hosted a women's-only pay-per-view.

The event saw some of the most incredible matches where legends returned to compete. Some of the company's top names competed and made history as well, as they had memorable matches that helped draw attention to the women's division.

For a long time, there have been rumors about plans for another WWE Evolution pay-per-view, but recently, Triple H commented about how such an event was not necessary. Charlotte Flair also commented that while such an event would be great, she preferred to compete on a card with men in it as well.

For the moment, the chances of an Evolution 2.0 card appear slim, but should such a pay-per-view take place, there are a number of matches that WWE could book.

The following are just five of the matches that would do really well on a WWE Evolution 2.0 card if the pay-per-view returns.


#5 WWE Evolution 2.0: Asuka vs Alexa Bliss

Alexa Bliss's current incarnation in WWE is one of her most intriguing forms. While she has abandoned The Fiend, she has become a force unto herself.

But since leaving Wyatt, other than going after Reginald and Shayna Baszler, Bliss has not really had any convincing feuds. A feud against someone like Asuka would go a long way in building her character.

If Evolution 2.0 takes place within the next few months, it would be the perfect way for WWE to provide Asuka a storyline that would keep her relevant in the company. She has not featured as much since losing the RAW Women's Title. If she were to enter a feud with Alexa Bliss, such a match would immediately grab the attention of the WWE Universe.

It would also help Bliss establish herself as a heel given how much of a babyface Asuka is.

#4 WWE Evolution 2.0: Natalya and Tamina vs Lita and Trish Stratus

Natalya and Tamina finally made a statement in WWE after they defeated Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler to win the women's tag team titles. However, when it comes to their challengers, there are very few tag teams that can face them at the moment.

After recent releases, the WWE's women's division might be rather lacking. With that being the case, in a women's-only pay-per-view, two WWE legends could return again. In 2018, Trish Stratus and Lita returned to team up together in a tag team match. History could repeat itself again if Lita and Trish Stratus decided to return again.

A match against two legends would help elevate the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. Natalya and Tamina have long been overlooked in WWE and were underrated in the women's division. However, with this title run, they have showcased their ability to not only be interesting but also dominate the picture in the division.

Trish Stratus and Lita are still more than capable of having a match and this would definitely help bring eyes to the women's division once again.

#3 WWE Evolution 2.0: Shayna Baszler vs Rhea Ripley

Shayna Baszler and Rhea Ripley are two wrestlers who are very familiar with each other. They wrestled multiple times when they were in WWE NXT and the chemistry between them was magic.

Since coming to the main roster, they have not really faced each other in singles combat, but when they do, it will be something to watch.

Rhea Ripley has battled Charlotte Flair and Asuka and dominated them when facing them in combat, but the RAW Women's Champion needs a new challenger. Facing Shayna Baszler would make a lot of sense for her future to establish herself as a WWE titleholder.

The two women would be sure to showcase a fascinating encounter and their storied history in NXT would also play a role in hyping up the importance of the bout.

A match between the two of them would be a clash of the titans that the fans would be able to get behind. Rhea Ripley and Shayna could ensure a technical match between two powerhouses.

#2 WWE Evolution 2.0: Sasha Banks vs Bayley vs Bianca Belair

WWE Evolution 2.0 could see an interesting triple threat match.

Sasha Banks and Bayley are very familiar with each other, while Bianca Belair has battled both superstars over the course of 2021. A match between the three stars in the form of a triple threat could tell a more exciting story.

As has been seen in the past, a good triple threat match can help any feud and make for some entertaining bouts.

John Cena defended his title against two friends when Triple H and Shawn Michaels challenged him for the title. The match remains one of the most exciting triple threat matches of all time. Similarly, former friends turned rivals Bayley and Sasha Banks could make for a similar equation when facing Belair.

Belair would also be challenged to retain her WWE title, as Sasha and Bayley could work together to take her out of the match and battle among themselves. The number of stories in the match would keep the audience's attention.

All three women are technically proficient so the match could be one of the more exciting bouts on the card.

#1 WWE Evolution 2.0: Charlotte Flair vs Becky Lynch

Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch battled each other at the last edition of the WWE Evolution pay-per-view. The two women competed in a Last Woman Standing Match that made history thanks to the brutality involved. Becky Lynch won the match, defeating Charlotte Flair.

The two women have incredible chemistry with each other. Charlotte Flair is currently one of the most hated heels in the company, with fans tired of her winning every title.

However, when she faced Becky Lynch, the way the two women worked together made everything better. While it would be better for Lynch to win, a loss against Flair would not hurt her either.

The stories that the two women could tell to establish dominance in WWE could help determine the future of the women's division. Flair's heel character winning could even help establish Lynch as the fan-favorite struggling against all the odds stacked against her.

Lynch left WWE last year so that she could give birth to her daughter. She gave birth last year in December and has been away from the ring. After her return, such a match in the Evolution 2.0 pay-per-view could go a long way in immediately getting her back into the fold.
