 Women's World Champion IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley Made Their Match Official for EvolutionI thought we'd get this rematch soon after WrestleMania 41 when it was being teased, but they moved away from it during Money in the Bank season. I'm actually glad we're getting it at Evolution and that it's not being saved for SummerSlam because I want SKY vs. Asuka to have a bigger buildup (assuming SKY retains at Evolution, which isn't likely). This was a solid segment to set it up.

 Cody Rhodes def. Randy Orton in the King of the Ring FinalsEven with it being extremely predictable that Rhodes was winning, I thought these two went out there and had the best bout of the entire show. Then again, that shouldn't come as much of a surprise given their history and chemistry. It started slow, but the crowd didn't seem to mind the methodical pace because both guys are so over. Rhodes felt like the heel by default, yet Orton was the one attempting to cheat toward the end and giving heel vibes on the ramp afterward. Either way, I can't wait for them to eventually have a full-fledged feud if this was any indication of how great it's going to be.
 Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton Exchanged WordsI was among those watching the show live on Netflix internationally as it aired live, so the segment cut out for me and I had to catch what I missed later on when it aired in the United States. I thought it was cool how they acknowledged the technical issues and proceeded to air footage that was filmed on a different type of camera near ringside. The exchange itself was great and they did a nice job recapping their history as well as emphasizing what winning King of the Ring would mean to them.
 The Skyscrapers def. Los Depredadores to Win the MLW World Tag Team ChampionshipLos Depredadores weren't MLW World Tag Team Champions for very long, but I can't say I'm heartbroken over their reign being cut short. The Skyscrapers is a great name for the duo of Donovan Dijak and Bishop Dyer and I love how no time was wasted in putting the tag titles on them. They work really well together as partners and this was a fun opener with the correct result.
 FTR and The Outrunners Faced OffDax Harwood getting pinned in that big tag team match by Atlantis last week made me think that feud wasn't over, but now it looks like FTR is moving onto The Outrunners. That's an improvement in my opinion, but the timing is odd, not only because of that but also because The Outrunners were at their hottest earlier this year and that would've been the best time for this feud. Nonetheless, this was a solid segment to set up a match between the two teams while simultaneously recapping their history together.
