WWE has announced big changes to two matches that were planned for the upcoming Evolution PPV. WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus was supposed to wrestle former RAW Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss while fellow WWE Hall of Famer Lita was supposed to face Mickie James. However, that has changed.
As seen on this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW in Rosemont, IL at the Allstate Arena on the USA Network, Stratus revealed that instead of competing separately, she would team up with Lita to take on James and Bliss in a tag team match at this show.
