Major Spoiler News and Notes for WWE Evolution 2 – As noted, WWE taped the July 4 edition of SmackDown on June 30 at the PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, PA. During the taping, a major women’s championship bout was made official as WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus confronted WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton. The verbal exchange ended with Stratton announcing that she would defend her title against Stratus at WWE Evolution 2 on Saturday, July 13, at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta.
In related news, BodySlam.net reports that Stephanie Vaquer is currently the internal favorite to win the high-stakes Battle Royal scheduled for the Evolution premium live event. The winner of that match will earn a title opportunity for the Women’s World Championship at WWE Clash in Paris on August 31. While WWE has yet to announce any official participants, sources within the company suggest Vaquer is in line for a significant push that could propel her into the main event scene internationally.
Should plans hold, this victory would mark the biggest milestone in Vaquer’s WWE career to date and solidify her as a rising star with global appeal. However, as always in WWE, plans are subject to change.
Additionally, BodySlam.net confirms that Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair will represent SmackDown in the Women’s Tag Team Title match at Evolution 2. The multi-brand title defense was established on the June 30 episode of RAW, where Roxanne Perez was named interim co-champion alongside Raquel Rodriguez following Liv Morgan’s injury. The pair will defend the belts against challengers from RAW, SmackDown, and NXT.
Although the Bliss-Flair team has yet to be officially announced on WWE television, the bout is expected to be confirmed in the coming days. WWE reportedly wants the Evolution card to be packed with top-tier talent and dream matches, and the inclusion of two of the most decorated women in company history certainly aligns with that goal.
