Evans goes back again and still doesn’t get the reaction she wanted. Evans grabs a mic and goes on a rant about being a hero and how she deserves a standing ovation every time she comes to the ring. Until she gets the reaction she wants the WWE Universe can go to hell. Evans tries to leave the ring but Aliyah stops her. Evans obliterates Aliyah with the Women’s Right.
