The audience and WWE greats in attendance were stunned when this departure happened, and
spoke up, sending a powerful message about professionalism.
The Undertaker's message reverberates through the locker room
In the aftermath of that incident, The Undertaker reportedly spoke to the cast and crew and made a strong case for order. Though he didn't specifically name names, he was referencing the walkout of Booker T. Sources say that The Undertaker made it clear that mentoring WWE LFG comes with an obligation to be an example, in and out of the ring.
He then suggested that one should not command, no matter how great a legacy or how many accolades one carries, without respect. While The Deadman certainly spoke in a composed manner, his message spoke volumes to those in attendance. It also reminded us that this was more than just a competition; it was about character and legacy, too.
A shift in atmosphere among mentors
Insider managed to confirm that the walkout has created an impact on the vibes of the show.
WWE LFG was all about guidance and legacy, and combining seasoned veterans with blossoming talent to create stars of the future. But when legends use petty grievances to eclipse the mission, it threatens to burn the buzz from the series.

Following the incident, fans are now wondering what Booker T does from here and if the tensions between mentors will have an effect on the show moving onward. Elsewhere, and embodying a leading-by-example mentality, The Undertaker is also continuing to establish a standard that being in WWE, at any level, demands far more than talent; it requires professionalism and decorum, and a respect for the business above all else.
As WWE LFG plays out, fans will be watching to see if The Undertaker's message brings everyone together, or whether wider rifts among the legends are also yet to come to light.

SPOILER: WWE Hall of Famer to challenge for Women's title at Evolution 2025 after nearly twenty years

Image via WWE WWE is gearing up to bring back the all-women's Premium Live Event, WWE Evolution 2025. It will take place at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, on July 13. Some top showdowns were added to the card on the June 30th edition of Monday Night RAW in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. WWE also taped the show for the upcoming July 4 edition of Friday Night SmackDown, which saw a huge match being confirmed for the show, that will see a WWE Hall of Famer returning to the squared circle one more time for a Women's title opportunity. Which WWE Hall of Famer will challenge for a title at WWE Evolution? At the tapings of the July 4th edition of WWE SmackDown, WWE Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton came out to the ring. She addressed her potential opponent for WWE SummerSlam, Jade Cargill, who earned the opportunity by defeating Asuka in the Queen of the Ring tournament finals at Night of Champions PLE. Stratton also stated that she intended to defend her title at WWE Evolution PLE. This led to The Storm coming down to the ring to confront Stratton. The Center of the Universe told her she would face a different opponent at Evolution. It was none other than WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus who came out next to a huge ovation. Stratus agreed to the challenge and had an exchange with the champion. This will be the first time Trish Stratus has challenged for the WWE Women's Championship after nearly two decades. The last one-on-one singles title bout she competed in was back in 2006. It was her final match as a full-time in-ring competitor against her longtime rival, Lita. The duo delivered one of the top showdowns in WWE history that saw Stratus win her seventh title and retire in her hometown of Toronto, Canada. The Diva of the Decade will once again have that opportunity against Tiffany Stratton, the same woman she teamed up with at the 2025 WWE Elimination Chamber PLE to defeat Nia Jax and Candice LeRae. However, with competitors on opposite ends now, it remains to be seen if Stratton can outlast a renowned name like Trish Stratus in one of the biggest matches of her career.

The Genius of the Sky announced that RAW General Manager Adam Pearce had granted her the choice of an opponent for WWE Evolution. She offered a title shot to Ripley, who accepted it for WWE Evolution. The second match made official for WWE Evolution will see the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships being defended. Finn Balor and JD McDonagh met with RAW and SmackDown GMs, Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis, to convince them to let Raquel Rodriguez find a replacement for Liv Morgan, who got injured a few weeks ago. They suggested Roxanne Perez's name, which they agreed on. However, they asked the team to prove their mettle and announced a Fatal 4-Way tag team match for the titles, where Perez and Rodriguez will defend the titles against one team from RAW, SmackDown, and NXT. The last match added to the WWE Evolution card was a huge Battle Royal announced by both RAW and SmackDown GMs in a vignette. They stated that multiple women will compete in the match, with the winner getting a Women's Championship match at WWE Clash in Paris Premium Live Event.
