Backstage News on Tiffany Stratton Capturing the WWE Women’s Title – Tiffany Stratton made her mark as the top star of WWE’s SmackDown women’s division by capturing the WWE Women’s Championship on the January 3 episode. Her triumph came after a dramatic cash-in of her Money in the Bank contract, following a hard-fought title defense by Nia Jax against Naomi.
The post-match chaos began when Jax attacked Bianca Belair, who was ringside with Naomi. Candice LeRae joined the fray, escalating the confrontation. Seizing the opportunity, Stratton stormed down with her briefcase and cashed in her contract. Moments later, she soared off the top rope with her signature Prettiest Moonsault Ever, pinning Jax to secure her first main roster singles championship.
Stratton’s reign comes after holding the Money in the Bank contract for 153 days. Her path to gold included a pivotal moment at SummerSlam, where her interference helped Jax dethrone Bayley.
The seeds of her title win were planted long before Friday’s show. According to PWInsider, the cash-in and title change had been in the works for weeks, kept tightly under wraps to ensure maximum impact. WWE strategically timed the title switch to align with SmackDown’s recent expansion to a three-hour format, creating a significant moment for both USA Network and Stratton’s burgeoning career. The move positions her as a central figure in the women’s division, solidifying her rise from NXT standout to a dominant force on WWE’s blue brand.
With her championship victory, the “Center of the Universe” begins a new era of dominance on SmackDown, promising fresh rivalries and must-see matches.
