Tonight, instead of watching Evolution on the WWE Network (I am watching the replay tonight later,) I am watching EVOLVE 114. Just like Evolution, EVOLVE 114 is a historic show since, as previously advertised, NXT talent appeared on the show.
Below I posted some SPOILER results followed by a discussion question.
some results:
NXT's Street Prophets defeated Doom Patrol to win the EVOLVE Tag Team Championship and end Doom Patrol's 400+ day reign
NXT's Fabian Aichner defeated Shane Strickland to win the EVOLVE Championship.
NXT's Dan Matha appeared and set up a feud with AR Fox and The Skulk.
Thoughts?

Uff, Strickland's reign didn't last long?!

So does this make Evolve a subsidiary of NXT at this point?

So does this make Evolve a subsidiary of NXT at this point? I don't know, but NXT wrestlers currently hold 2/3 of the EVOLVE championships on the next two EVOLVE shows, 205 Live's Mustafa Ali wrestles DJZ and Darby Allin on EVOLVE 115 and 116 respectfully, plus Kassius Ohno appears as well in addition to new EVOLVE Champion Fabian Aichner- who was announced for all the remaining EVOLVE 2018 shows- and I am assuming the new EVOLVE Tag Team Champions the Street Prophets too. It seems like there are almost as many NXT wrestlers as EVOLVE wrestlers on these next EVOLVE shows. |

Uff, Strickland's reign didn't last long?! I know. The promotion has really been gutted over the years. Both title wins were poop. Rather see Evolve guys get the push over NXT jobbers. Sad to see what’s happened to The company (& the World Title). At least JD Drake got some gold. Seems like Darby Allin, Josh Briggs, AR Fox, Austin Theory or virtually anyone else would’ve been better. I guess in exchange, they get free talent and exposure? |

I suppose I'm okay with SF winning, but I don't like the NXT guys winning all these belts.
EVOLVE is such a great promotion, though their talent has been stripped.

It's a lot like the WWF treated ECW when they had a relationship. "I know we're signing your talent away from you but go ahead and break in Droz for us."

I knew and warned this would happen. PROGRESS should be very concerned. WWE has never had a working relationship with another company that left the other company in a better place.
