Tag Team Grudge Match - Farewell To An Icon
Johnny Gargano & Cody Rhodes vs. EVOLVE Tag Team Champion Drew Galloway & Chris Hero
Johnny Gargano & Cody Rhodes vs. EVOLVE Tag Team Champion Drew Galloway & Chris Hero
The starpower is off the charts
here, but this goes much deeper than that. There is history between all these
men. This will be Gargano's last match in EVOLVE. Someone will win the
war.
There is also this to consider.
Bonus Main Event
Zack Sabre Jr. vs. Ricochet
Zack Sabre Jr. vs. Ricochet
Arguably the best submission artist in the world vs. the best
high-flyer in the world. What more could you want?
Special Challenge Match
Matt Riddle vs. TJ Perkins w/ Stokely Hathaway
Matt Riddle vs. TJ Perkins w/ Stokely Hathaway
Catch Point is about competition and both these Catch Point
members are ready to grapple to see who the better man is. This match was set up
at the last EVOLVE card in Queens. Who do you think will win?
Grudge Match
EVOLVE Tag Team Champion DUSTIN vs. Drew Gulak
EVOLVE Tag Team Champion DUSTIN vs. Drew Gulak
DUSTIN originally brought Drew Gulak into EVOLVE several years
ago. Gulak developed Catch Point while DUSTIN saw his bookings diminish. DUSTIN
made his surprise return to unseat Gulak as a tag team champion. Now they will
finally fight one-on-one.
New Talent Test #1
Tony Nese vs. Darby Allin
Tony Nese vs. Darby Allin
It's a do or die weekend for Allin. He impressed in a WWN
Seminar/Tryout, but now needs to win to get a WWN contract. Nese needs to
continue building momentum off his performances in the WWE CWC and
NXT.
New Talent Test #2
Ethan Page vs. David Starr
Ethan Page vs. David Starr
This is another in the series of matches pitting new talent vs.
established WWN stars. Page is after forgiveness from Gargano, but he better not
sleep on Starr, who is wrestling everywhere these days.
New Talent Test #3
Tracy Williams vs. Chuck O'Neil
Tracy Williams vs. Chuck O'Neil
O'Neil brings his MMA skills against the hard-hitting Williams.
Can O'Neil follow in the footsteps of Matt Riddle and make the transition from
MMA to pro wrestling with a victory over "Hot Sauce" in his EVOLVE
debut?
New Talent Test #4
Fred Yehi vs. Travis Gordon
Fred Yehi vs. Travis Gordon
Gordon is another athlete who impressed in a WWN
Seminar/Tryout. He is looking to establish himself while Yehi needs to finally
realize his potential.
September 9th: The deadline to apply for the WWN
Creative Seminar tomorrow is midnight tonight. Go here for info. This will be
the only WWN Creative Seminar of 2016.
September
9th: WWN VP Of Talent Relations Gabe Sapolsky did this interview with Squared Circle Pit talking about
ECW, ROH, EVOLVE and some stories involving music with the different
promotions.
September 9th: Are you ready for the
weekend? We hope you will join us in person or on live iPPV to give Johnny
Gargano the "thank you" and sendoff he deserves. You watched him grow as a
person and wrestler. Witness it as this chapter closes. #ThankYouJohnny
