The rise and fall of Evolution

On the Feb. 3, 2003 edition of Raw, Triple H joined Ric Flair, Randy Orton and Batista in the ring and declared to the WWE Universe that the collective that stood before them was to be known as Evolution. (WATCH)

Not since the 1988 prime of The Four Horsemen when Flair, Tully Blanchard, Barry Windham and Arn Anderson held every major title in the NWA had professional wrestling seen a gathering of talent as gifted as this. Evolution may have inspired obvious comparisons to that legendary ensemble, but The Game, Flair, Orton and Batista represented something greater than just the squared circle's most elite competitors. They were the past, present and future of WWE all at once ? an evolution in sports-entertainment occurring before everyone's eyes.

With the tenth anniversary of their formation upon us, WWE Classics chronicles Evolution?s rise to power and the greed and jealousy that ultimately corrupted them.
