Town Hall Meeting 

Stevie Turner: Wow. It’s an absolute honor to be named the new General Manager of WWE EVOLVE. The fact that AVA put her trust in me, not Stone, may I add, makes that so much sweeter. If the last few weeks have been anything to go by, this truly is where pro wrestling evolves, and it’ll continue to be that way under my leadership. Everything is up for grabs. Who will take the top spots? Who will be in eventual title contendership? And who will become the first ever face of EVOLVE? Well, that all comes down to who impresses me and the fans of course. Hey, how about we get things kicked off with two men that were going at it a few weeks ago? Yeah. And those two men, a Wolfgang and Sam Holloway. Let’s do that, next.

– Keanu Carver got into a big shoving contest with Luca Crusifino to conclude this segment.

Drako Knox Promo 

Last week was the biggest opportunity of my life. A chance to make a name for myself, a chance to change my life. And that opportunity came when our team with Tate Wilder against Tyson and Tyriek. When I compete in that ring, I feel alive. I feel a hunger I ain’t felt since my college grid iron days. When I connect, fist to face, ooh, that’s a good feeling. Now, I know the results didn’t show what we wanted, but I can handle that. I can learn, I can grow from a loss, but what I can’t handle is that big no name goof sitting in the VIP Section thinking he can show me up. Now, Tate’s out with an injury, so I’m here by myself. But if anybody thinks they can show me up, I’m going to handle that. So, whoever you are, whatever your name is, let’s handle it in the ring.
