Triple H Comments on WWE’s Upcoming All-Women’s Evolution Event

Sky Sports held a recent interview with Triple H and one of the topics discussed involved his thoughts on WWE’s upcoming all-women’s Evolution event and if it will become an annual event for the company.

“It’s a question to be answered down the road. Do we need to have a women’s only event? No — just like we don’t need a men’s only event or anything else. I think that the opportunity is there whoever is the best, the most prominent box office attraction that is the main event. It doesn’t matter if that’s Raw, Smackdown, NXT, Wrestlemania. So can they have their own event? Can it be a mainstay? Yes, and if our fans want it and it’s the right thing then we’ll give it to them. The WWE universe will dictate to us what the approach is.”
