WWE is well on its way towards SummerSlam in New Jersey, but the company has two major events to host before The Biggest Party of the Summer. Triple H may have now spoiled a major name's return to the promotion.

Trish Stratus' name has appeared a lot recently, especially with the veteran reportedly being set to make a return ahead of Evolution 2025, and being spotted ahead of the most recent edition of RAW. Rumors have indicated that the Hall of Famer could have a match at the all-female premium live event, and Triple H might have now spoiled her return before the event.

Today, the Chief Content Officer unveiled the official poster for Evolution 2025, and it featured a variety of superstars and veterans. Trish Stratus was shown in the poster, seemingly confirming her return weeks before the event. While the leak didn't reveal Stratus' upcoming match or feud, it still indicates that the 7-time Women's Champion has returned to the Stamford-based promotion.

"Honoring the trailblazers and inspiring the next generation. #WWEEvolution streams live from Atlanta’s @StateFarmArena July 13 at 7pm. @peacock @netflix," Hunter tweeted on X/Twitter.

[Spoiler] Why was Trish Stratus in town for WWE RAW?

Trish Stratus was reportedly in Pittsburgh ahead of WWE RAW. However, she didn't appear on the red brand, nor did she have a backstage segment with any superstars from Monday Night RAW heading into Evolution.

Warning: The following contains Spoilers for the July 4th edition of SmackDown.

Instead, the company taped the upcoming episode of Friday Night SmackDown, and Trish Stratus made an appearance heading into the second-ever all-female premium live event in the promotion's history.

The 7-time Women's Champion accepted Tiffany Stratton's challenge for Evolution 2025, and the WWE Women's Championship will be on the line. The two stars have previously teamed up, as they defeated Nia Jax and Candice LeRae at Elimination Chamber in Toronto.

Before The Buff Barbie turned face on the blue brand, the two stars did cross paths and hinted at a potential match down the line. It'll be interesting to see if Stratton can enter SummerSlam and face off against Jade Cargill as the champion.
