Evolution was a great PPV. I just wish they kept it in the north east. Was there any particular reason they moved it to Atlanta?
A few reasons. They wanted to stack the deck against All In weekend was the primary one. There were rumors that Evolution was originally slated for the weekend prior, but that there were venue scheduling issues. However, nothing kept them from scheduling it literally anywhere else.
Hey Sean, was Bryan Danielsons appearance at All In a one off for the time being or do you think we'll see him with Darby go against The Death Riders this summer? Thanks
This is a hunch, not a report, but I would be surprised to not see Bryan Danielson take on Wheeler YUTA. Writing off the Death Riders as a group completely in a big Blood & Guts match would make sense, and they've never found a way to actually get Danielson in one. I think that might change if it gets booked.
With Kelly Kelly posting and confirming she declined the Evolution invitation to just sit in the crowd and wave, have you heard of anybody else who may have made the same decision?
No, but there were a number of people in WWE who were surprised that Kelly Kelly was holding out for an in ring spot after not having a singles match in 13 years. One higher up said they hadn't heard of Kelly Kelly actively training for a match or anything like that to give them confidence in booking her in a spot like that.
What are refs doing when they flick the switch on the device on their belt, and what is the device for?
To communicate with the backstage area. Specifically to get messages and communicate to the wrestlers if need be. Timing changes, cues, the like are all passed down through the referee.

Mickie declined the offer to sit in the crowd as well

The switch is to turn on the ref’s microphone, so they can speak messages back to gorilla.
