EVOLVE To Crown First Ever Tag Team Champions In 3-Day Tournament This January

TAMPA, FL- EVOLVE officially announced that the first-ever EVOLVE Tag Team Champions will be crowned in a three day tournament in Florida on January 22nd in Ybor City, January 23rd in Orlando and January 24th in Orlando. This is the same weekend that WWE will present The Royal Rumble in Orlando.

EVOLVE will kick off the tournament with opening round matches on Friday night in the Tampa area. The tournament will conclude with afternoon events on Saturday and Sunday in Orlando. The EVOLVE events in Orlando will have a special 2pm belltime so they will not go head-to-head with any WWE live events.
