Two legendary former WWE Women's Champions are scheduled to be in Atlanta for this Sunday's Evolution premium live event. According to a new report from WWE Hall of Famer Alundra Blayze and the formidable Jazz are both expected to be present for the show.
While their exact roles have not been confirmed, their presence opens the door for surprise appearances. It is highly speculated that they could be entrants in the high-stakes battle royal, where the winner will earn a future world championship match.
A Trailblazer And Her Infamous Moment
Alundra Blayze was the centerpiece of WWE's women's division in the mid-1990s "New Generation" era. A three-time WWE Women's Champion, she was known for her athletic, hard-hitting style that was ahead of its time. However, she is most famous for one of the most controversial moments of the Monday Night Wars.
After leaving WWE for WCW in 1995, she appeared live on an episode of WCW Monday Nitro and infamously dropped the WWE Women's Championship belt into a trash can.
This act made her a controversial figure for nearly two decades before she and WWE reconciled. She was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015, where she brought the story full circle by "pulling" the title back out of the trash.

One Of The Toughest Ever
Jazz was one of the most dominant and physically imposing champions of the Attitude and Ruthless Aggression eras. Her legitimate toughness and smash-mouth style set her apart from many of her contemporaries. She was a two-time WWE Women's Champion, with her first reign lasting an impressive 98 days.
She engaged in memorable feuds with the top stars of that era, including Trish Stratus and Lita. After leaving WWE, she continued a successful career, most notably having a dominant 948-day reign as the NWA World Women's Champion.
The presence of these two legends at Evolution adds another layer of history to the event. They represent two distinct, important eras in the evolution of women's wrestling, and their potential involvement has fans buzzing ahead of this Sunday's show. WWE has stacked the card for this show and will likely add more star power to it.
