Rivalry Renewed: Trish Stratus vs. Mickie James
This match was not hinted at in WWE’s press release. However, just hours after Evolution was announced, Mickie James challenged her old rival Trish Stratus to a match at the PPV:
We’ve stood the test of time my friend… But after tonight’s announcement from @StephMcMahon and all the excitement for something we all worked so hard for I must ask… One more time?! #EVOLUTION #ThePeopleWantIt #IWantIt 💋 https://t.co/8jBhJOHQJ6

James vs. Stratus was one of the most compelling rivalries of the “Divas” era, and they are two of the most decorated women in all of wrestling. If there’s ever a PPV for them to have “one more match,” it’s Evolution.
