WWE Evolution: what matches are set to take place and what time does the all-female PLE start in the UK?

• The females of the WWE come together for WWE Evolution 2025.
• The all-female PLE will feature the likes of Rhea Ripley, Becky Lynch, IYO SKY and many more.
• Here’s the current matches announced for this weekend’s PLE and how you can watch along at home in the UK.

WWE Evolution is the last event in what is a packed weekend for wrestling fans, with the all-female PLE taking place at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, as the superstars of Raw, SmackDown, and NXT collide once again.

The event sees the in-ring returns of two of the WWE’s most famous female competitors, Hall of Famers Trish Stratus and Nikki Bella while the ever-popular Rhea Ripley will get a chance to claim her World Women’s Championship back from current champion IYO SKY in a highly-anticipated match.

There’s also plenty of other titles and opportunities on the line, including a Battle Royal to determine the next challenger for either the WWE Women’s Championship, the World Women’s Championship, or the NXT Women’s Championship – with their shot to take place in France during the WWE’s Clash in Paris 2025 event.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of this weekend’s event, including how to watch in the United Kingdom.

Is this the first all-female Premium Live Event presented by the WWE?

No - the inaugural WWE Evolution was held on October 28, 2018, at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York.

That event holds the distinction of being WWE's first-ever PLE and livestreaming event to consist solely of women's matches. It featured female wrestlers from all of WWE's brands at the time, including Raw, SmackDown, NXT, and NXT UK.

That event was headlined by then WWE Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey, who defeated Nikki Bella to retain her championship.
