EVOLVE Wrestling prides itself on featuring a roster full of the best young sensations in the Country that owner <strong>Gabe<\/strong> <strong>Sapolsky<\/strong> can find. The hardcore <strong>Darby<\/strong> <strong>Allin<\/strong> and newcomer <strong>Zachary<\/strong> <strong>Wentz<\/strong> could have been easy choices for this match, but the 310-pound WALTER being involved guarantees a brawl that the world won\u2019t want to miss. This could be a sign the relationship between EVOLVE Wrestling and WWE is growing and it won\u2019t be long before EVOLVE comes to the <strong>WWE<\/strong> <strong>Network<\/strong> via On Demand.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=TwcGco1mZ04<\/p>\n<p>Adam Cole better bulk up for the chops he is about to receive from WALTER. It would be a massive achievement if Cole pinned the heavyweight Austrian that made his name in Germany in <strong>wXw<\/strong>, but who has now become wildly popular in the United States. WALTER&#8217;s style is not unlike <strong>Samoa<\/strong> <strong>Joe&#8217;s<\/strong> form of attack: pummel the opponent until they are worn down for the Choke. Walter is the head coach at wXw and he was heavily rumoured to be signed to WWE earlier this year, but he silenced those rumours. Adam Cole may not have his Undisputed Era friends <strong>Bobby<\/strong> <strong>Fish<\/strong>, <strong>Kyle<\/strong> <strong>O&#8217;Reilly<\/strong> and <strong>Roderick<\/strong> <strong>Strong<\/strong> to help him get out of this Championship match this time.
