Next week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/11/wwe-evolve-1152025.html 

Peter Rosenberg and Robert Stone are on commentary.

Masyn Holiday vs Jin Tala

I'm surprised Jin is on this as she was fired weeks ago.

Jin kicks her hand away on a lock up. Jin pulls on the arm. MH arm throws her and side headlock takeovers her. MH shoulders her over. MH leapfrogs her and crossbodies her. Jin blocks a dropkick and axe kicks her in the back. Jin chokes her on the 2nd rope. Jin kicks her in the back.

Jin hits shots in the corner and euros her over. Jin pus her legs between MH's head and pushes forward. Jin boots her out of the corner and does like an enzugiri for 2. 

Jin chinlocks her. MH drops her with forearms. MH neckbreakers her. MH splashes her and wins.

Thoughts: The finish was a bit weak here with Jin going down to a splash. Jin did a lot of kicks in this but they didn't look good. I didn't think this was that good. 

Bigg Jah then comes out and dances with Masyn as she goes to leave.

Tate Wilder does a video. He says it looks like he's starting to find his way and said he put down a big name in brooks Jensen. He says a thrill seeker like him can't sit still. He says he's looped into a triple threat vs Laredo Kid and Marcus Mathers. He says he was chosen to represent The Performance Center and will do so with pride, grit and purpose. He says it's another step on the trail and he will take it with pride.

We get another Wendy Choo therapy video. She says when she saw AJ Lee talk about therapy on Raw, it was the first time she felt hope. She talks about Chantal Monroe giving her stress. She says she feels angry and says she feels free. She says she can finally be herself. She says she wasn't connected to herself now and says it will change. She says everyone including Monroe will see a whole new side of Wendy Choo.

Chuey Martinez is in the ring with 3 new WWE ID recruits. They are Mike Cunningham. He says he's proud to be trained by Cody Rhodes at The Nightmare Factory. He said he only had 50 matches and it's a dream come true to be here. Next is Jha'Quan McNair. He's from North Carolina. He says he trained at Lodi's Team Fearless Academy. He says he looks forward to making his name here at Evolve. The last one is Eli Knight, from Reality of Wrestling. He says he learned a lot from Booker and Ace Steel. He says he promises he will make his name heard.

Brooks Jensen comes in. BJ calls them The New Kids on the Block. He says they are ready to take the spot of veterans like himself. He says he's no ordinary man but the bad man from ala-bam-bam-bama. He says he's supposed to be looking at Booker's prized pupil but doesn't see it. He says he sees fear in McNair's eyes. He says he heard that Cody said Mike is "the guy". Mike says, "you better believe it". BJ says Mike has some fight in him. BJ says he can talk to him once he hits puberty. Mike says they are right here and says let's do this right now. Chuey says no. BJ says not to make him embarrass him. Chuey says to give them their time to shine.

Thoughts: I've seen photos of Mike but I haven't seen him wrestle yet. McNair needs to be change his name. Nobody will be able to spell that. I've been a big supporter of Eli Knight and actually said they should sign him a few weeks ago. He can really fly and seems like another Leon Slater/Je'Von Evans type of guy.

We get another Aaron Rourke video about his life.

The Vanity Project talk to Stevie Turner in the back. Drake says the situation with Keanu needs to get solved. He says Keanu's cast has to be illegal. Stevie says Drake put him in the cast. Drake says he refuses to wrestle Keanu. Stevie says Keanu is cleared to wrestle with the cast on and is Drake's #1 contender. She says Keanu will face Drake for the title in 2 weeks. Drake says the bias is sickening.

Tate Wilder vs Laredo Kid vs Marcus Mathers

Kid is repping AAA, Tate is repping Evolve and MM is repping WWE ID. MM talks before he enters. He says he's living his dream and says he reps WWE ID. He says he will make them proud tonight and show why he's the finest.

Tate rolls up Kid then MM rolls up Tate. Tate shoulders over both opponents. Tate punches both opponents and hits corner attacks. Tate takes double kicks. Kid shoves MM and slaps him. Kid flying forearms and michinoku drivers MM. Kid twisting moonsaults MM off the buckles twice for 2.

Tate hits corner lariats on Kid then a regular lariat. Tate backdrops Kid for 2. MM hits euros and forearms on Tate. MM rolling snapmares and mule kicks Tate. MM double jump twisting crossbodies Kid. Kid jackhammers MM hard on his neck. 

We go to break and return. MM is thrown out. Kid lariats Tate over the top. Kid topes both outside. MM sweeps Kid on the apron and PK's him. Tate lariats MM on the apron. Tate apron ssp's Kid and MM on the floor.

MM and Tate are on the buckles. Kid sunset bombs Tate, making him superplex MM. Kid takes a hook kick from MM. MM cross-legged suplexes him for 2. MM chops Tate. Tate tries a 2nd rope flipping russian legsweep on MM but both land on their feet. Tate forearms Kid down then twisting suplexes him. MM top rope 450's Kid. Tate powerbombs MM off of it. Tate top rope moonsaults MM and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a good match with a lot of flying. Tate's really impressive for how short of a career he has had. He can really fly on top of being decent looking and a rookie. He's going places and really should be in the Rookie of the Year conversation. Kid is always fun and MM seemed to have taken some rough bumps here. It had tons of action as expected.

Tate shakes hands with his opponents after.

Chantal Monroe does a video. She says Wendy Choo snapped out of it and started running her mouth. She says she's happy Choo got the help she needed but isn't in the right state of mind as she wants to fight her. Monroe says she will slap some sense into her and will call her her new therapist.

It's GAL does a video. He says he's ranking people on the Stud-O-Meter. He talks about The Steiner's. He calls them genetic freaks like him. He says they get a 9.3 on the meter. He then talks about The Dudley Boyz. He said they should have spent less time getting the tables and more time getting the gain. He says they get a 6.8. Gal says he needs a new partner as she is losing gains by the minute.

We get a video on Adrenaline Drip vs Riggins/Presley. 

Kendal Grey comes out with Carlee Bright. She says she won't tell a sob story. She says the Evolve Title is validation that her hard work has paid off. She said she knew it would be a struggle vs Kali. She said she held the title with pride and swag. She asks how it's possible to beat someone who has been so dominant. She says she had to drag her into The Grey Area. 

Grey talks about her accomplishments. She says she made Kali play her game and says the only person that steps out of The Grey Area is her. She says being at the top of the mountain is where she likes to be. She says whoever wants her next better be ready to step in the grey area as she's ready for you.

The former Penina Tuilaepa, winner of LFG Season 2 comes out. She bodyblocks Carlee then powerbombs Grey onto the title. They say her name is PJ Vasa. PJ does an AA into a slam type of move on Grey and leaves Grey and Bright laying.

Thoughts: Grey was really pushing "The Grey Area" line here and it got a little old. PJ was a little sloppy here but she looked good on LFG. We will see how she does.

Overall thoughts: We only had 2 matches here. Tala/Holiday wasn't that good but the three way was. We also got some new WWE ID announcements and the Evolve debut of Penina Tuilaepa/PJ Vasa which will change things up going forward. I was disappointed the LFG coaches didn't appear as they made it seem like they would. The show probably had as much non-wrestling stuff as it had wrestling stuff. It was just average overall and I'd give it a 5 out of 10.
