The event will see every one of the women's belts defended, the finals of the Mae Young Classic and will also see the return of several WWE legends.

Details about the event will probably begin to spill out in the coming months, but the announcement has got fans the world over speculating about just what matches we might get to see.

Returning legends and the involvement of NXT talent means that we could see several dream matches at the event. Let's take a look at five matches that must happen at the first ever WWE Evolution event.


#1 Sasha Banks Vs Bayley

WWE fans have been waiting for what feels like an eternity to see Sasha Banks and Bailey lock up in the ring, so being forced to wait a few more months isn't going to hurt anybody.

The feud between the two women has been terribly booked and frankly, no-one knows if this match is ever going to happen but if it is, then Evolution is the perfect place for it to take place.

The card will likely feature a fair few randomly thrown together matches, so having one that has had months of build on there will no definitely help. It is also likely to be the match of the night, providing it is given the correct amount of time.

#2 Asuka vs Becky Lynch

Despite winning the first ever Women's Royal Rumble, 2018 has not been kind to Asuka. The former NXT champion has suffered losses in her last three PPV outings and is in desperate need of a boost.

Asuka's quest for gold should come to an end at Evolution and it shouldn't be against Carmella.

Asuka is one of the finest performers in the WWE and she deserves a worthy opponent at Evolution. Becky Lynch's recent push towards the SmackDown women's belt was seemingly apropos of nothing but it would make a lot of sense if she were to defend it against Asuka at Evolution.

The two women could steal the show on the night, and the sight of Lynch shaking Asuka's hand after the bout would provide the audience with a great moment.

#3 Lita vs Nikki Cross

Choosing an opponent for Lita at Evolution is no easy task. The WWE Hall of Famer is likely going to want to put over an up and coming superstar but she will also need someone whose in-ring style will carry her to a good match.

Surveying the current crop of women's talent, Nikki Cross could well be the best option. Her deranged personality could help bring the best of Lita from a character perspective heading into the bout, and it could even lead to a brief reunion with Jeff Hardy on SmackDown, who could easily enter into some sort of feud with a member of Sanity.

A win for Cross would instantly help push her up the card as well, and establish her as one of the women to beat on SmackDown.

#4 Ronda Rousey vs Natalya

Ronda Rousey is likely going to head into Evolution as the Raw women's champion. The former UFC star is set to go one on one with Alexa Bliss at SummerSlam, and it seems highly likely that she will walk away from the match victorious.

Like Sasha Vs Bayley, the seeds for this match were planted a long time ago and it would make sense to have their storyline culminate on such a historic stage.

Natalya is also considered to be one of the most competent performers on the WWE rosters, and the veteran is likely to help get a great match out of Rousey in what will probably be the headline attraction.

#5 Trish Stratus vs Charlotte Flair

The WWE has the rare opportunity of providing fans with several dream match-ups at their first ever all women's PPV and they don't come much bigger than Charlotte Flair Vs Trish Stratus.

Both women have defined women's wrestling in different generations and it would be criminal to not have these two icons share a ring together at Evolution.

Of course, with Flair rumored to be main-eventing WrestleMania next year, and with her being the active roster member in the match, she should pick up the hard-fought victory here.

Stratus is also likely to be a little rusty between the ropes and if there is anyone in the women's division capable of carrying her to a good match, it's Charlotte.
