Anticipations are high among the fans for this weekend’s WWE Evolution 2025, an all-female show to be hosted by the biggest professional wrestling promotion in the world. Given the experience that the fans had at the inaugural edition, show-ups were expected by numerous WWE legends, but this may not be the case.
Michelle McCool has been appearing on WWE LFG series, which led the fans to believe that she should be involved at WWE Evolution 2025 in some capacity. The overall two-time WWE Women’s Champion, first-ever WWE Divas/Women’s co-champion & the WWE Hall of Famer has now provided an update on her status on the show, which turns out to be negative.
Amid rumors of an in-ring return at WWE Evolution 2025, McCool says on Twitter/X that she has not received a call from the WWE. In a recent post on the social media platform, she responded to a fan who suggested that she and Kelly Kelly should “pick up the phone” for a spot in the Evolution battle royal. But, McCool made it clear that WWE has not reached out to her.
As noted above, McCool serves as a coach on the A&E reality series WWE LFG, alongside her husband, The Undertaker, and fellow WWE Hall of Famers, Booker T, and Bubba Ray Dudley. The inaugural WWE Divas Champion has also made sporadic in-ring appearances in recent years, including the original Evolution Battle Royal, but it appears that she is still not scheduled for the WWE Evolution 2025 edition.

As such, appearances by the legends at the all-women PLE could be minimal. While speaking during a recent Instagram Live session, Victoria confirmed that she will not be there as she is not booked. She further added that her back isn’t completely in the best shape, either. As such, rumors of The Bella Twins as a team or The IIconics in the multi-team tag title match at WWE Evolution 2025 have also been scrapped.
