10 Times WWE Blatantly Lied To Our Faces

10. First-Ever Last Woman's Standing Match (Not Counting NXT)

Coming into WWE's first-ever all-women's PPV, Evolution, in 2018, the company sensed they needed to put together a few special encounters to sell the landmark event.

So, on top of having Ronda Rousey defend her Raw Women's Championship against Nikki Bella and both Trish Stratus & Lita show up on the night, it was soon announced that Becky Lynch would put her SmackDown Women's Championship on the line against Charlotte Flair in the "first-ever" Last Woman Standing match.

Of course, fans were absolutely buzzing about this impending war between two of WWE's baddest women, but many were quick to point out that this wasn't actually going to be the first match of its type in WWE history.

A year earlier, Nikki Cross attempted to prise the NXT Women's Championship away from Asuka on an episode of NXT in what was billed as the show's first-ever Last Woman Standing match. But, despite the black and gold brand being under the WWE umbrella, making this classic the first bout of its kind in the company's history, fans were asked to forget that the Asuka and Cross Full Sail epic ever took place in order to add some more lustre to an already impressive looking night of action.

We remember, though, ladies...we remember.
