"SAY SOMETHING!"

It’s the final Evolution of the season but before things can get kicked off we get a special announcement from Commissioner Jason Parker: Lancelot and Lone Star will face off in the ring tonight ahead of their main event match at Nitro!

The first match of the night sees Island Nation go up against the Buccaneers. Both teams had a lot to fight for with the biggest show of the year coming up but it was Devon and Kurt Andrews who got the upper hand. The experienced duo hit the Maelstrom for the win. Later on they were confirmed to be Hernandez and Park’s opponent for Nitro.

Yamamoto has been the victim of a barrage of verbal attacks from Queen Alexia but she showed that hasn’t affected her abilities in a match with Kaitlyn Dunlap. The Goddess was cocky and arrogant as always but Moto had no time for it tonight, putting her to sleep with a Rainmaker for the win.

It was planned several weeks ago: Sam Hunt was going to fight Oliver Parker. But it never went down. As Parker made his entrance he was assaulted by Andrew Wesley while Hunt fell victim to Woods’ Colt 45 for a second time. The brawl raged and forced the cancelation of the highly anticipated match. We later learned that Hunt and Woods will fight in an unsanctioned match at Nitro, the first one in Evolution’s history, while Wesley and Parker will duke it out in a last man standing bout.

Ballesca Pierce fights Sophia Sweetness in the main event, a perfect final warmup for the champ as Sweetness picked up a lot of her game from her old mentor Lazzara. Pierce was counting on that and was prepared for it. The most shocking thing of the night was Pierce’s finisher of choice: Kaitlyn Dunlap’s DDG. She had used that move to play mind games with Dunlap before but apparently she has co-opted it moving forward. It did get the job done against Sweetness.

Lancelot and Lone Star faced off to close the show. Lone Star spoke for the first time and it is well worth watching if you haven’t seen it. The long and the short is these are two highly confident, dangerous and skilled men who make the perfect combination for a great match in the Nitro 11 main event.
