For the first time ever on Saturday, WWE will broadcast an independent wrestling event on its WWE Network streaming service. 

Evolve 131, the 10th anniversary event for East Coast-based promotion Evolve Wrestling, will be streamed live on WWE Network. WWE and Evolve have a close working relationship, having partnered in 2015. Wrestlers from WWE’s NXT brand (many of whom were signed after appearing for Evolve) regularly have matches at Evolve shows against Evolve talent.

WWE has been actively promoting the Evolve show on its social media and, most notably, on its television product. It is perhaps not a coincidence that AEW, the upstart potential WWE competitor, is also holding a show that night.
