EVOLVE 85 Preview
EVOLVE makes its Detroit area debut this Sunday with several possible main events. The EVOLVE Championship will be in the main event. It is now scheduled as EVOLVE Champion Zack Sabre Jr. vs. Lio Rush. However, if Sabre Jr. loses the EVOLVE Title at EVOLVE 84 the main event will be new champion Ethan Page making his first defense vs. Donovan Dijak! In addition, the WWN Title will be defended. Right now it is scheduled as WWN Champion Matt Riddle defending vs. Jeff Cobb. However, if Kyle O’Reilly wins the WWN Title in Chicago it will be O’Reilly making his first defense vs. Tracy Williams. As you can see, either way the fans win with a tremendous lineup of action. Here’s a quickie preview:
