Michelle McCool is not currently advertised to appear at the all-women's WWE Evolution event on July 13. With less than a week to go until the show, the 2025 Hall of Famer addressed a fan's question about her in-ring status.
McCool wrestled for WWE from 2004 to 2011 before retiring. The 45-year-old returned to the ring in 2018 as a participant in the first Women's Royal Rumble Match. Later that year, she also featured in a Battle Royal at the inaugural Evolution.
The upcoming Evolution show will feature another Battle Royal, prompting speculation that several legends could be involved. A fan on X told McCool and Kelly Kelly that they should "pick up the phone" if they want to be on the card. However, McCool clarified that she has not been contacted about appearing:

Queen of the Ring winner Jade Cargill will also receive a WWE Women's Championship opportunity at SummerSlam on August 2-3.
