Triple H putting over EVOLVE recently wasn’t just for show as the collaboration between WWE/NXT and EVOLVE/WWN is getting concrete. Sami Zayn is to appear at this weekend’s EVOLVE shows (October 17th in Queens NY, October 18th in Long Island NY). While the shows will be available on iPPV, Zayn’s appearances will be for the live crowd only. Here is the full announcement by EVOLVE:
“In an unprecedented move, Sami Zayn will be at EVOLVE 49 this Saturday in Queens, NY and EVOLVE 50 this Sunday in Long Island, NY. Here are the details:
VIP ticket holders can take part in a meet and greet with Sami Zayn. This includes an autograph opportunity.
If you have already purchased tickets, you can upgrade it to a VIP ticket at the events.
Sami Zayn will make an in ring appearance on both events, but this will not be broadcast on live iPPV. It will be a special moment for fans in Queens and Deer Park. What will Zayn do? Who will he end up in the ring with? Be there and find out!”
This will also likely mark Johnny Gargano’s final appearance for EVOLVE, NXT will be his next stop.
