Tiffany Stratton had a huge issue on SmackDown ahead of match with Charlotte Flair, says veteran (Exclusive)

Tiffany Stratton is involved in a heated feud with Charlotte Flair on the road to WrestleMania 41. The WWE Women's Champion was jumped by the challenger on multiple occasions during SmackDown this week.

During a recent episode of BroDown on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge, Vince Russo pointed out an issue with Tiffany Stratton on SmackDown this week, claiming the reigning champion was struggling against her opponent on the blue brand.

"Well, Mac, they do that with everybody, bro. You've got Tiffany going with Charlotte in a week, and she's going 50-50 with somebody from NXT. I mean, Dutch, you and I booked together for a long, long time. You're trying to build her against Charlotte. She's got her hands full beating somebody from NXT. Why are they booking it that way?"

Alberto Del Rio returning to WWE?

For those unaware, Tiffany squared off against former two-time NXT Women's Champion Roxanne Perez this week on SmackDown. Stratton picked up the win only to engage in a brawl with Charlotte Flair in a post-match angle.

The assault came despite WWE announcing that Charlotte Flair had been sent home for jumping Tiffany Stratton in the parking lot before SmackDown went on air. The commentary team also noted that both women would face disciplinary action for going off-script previously on the blue brand show.

He prioritizes accuracy, relevance, and ethics in his reporting by conducting thorough research, verifying sources, and adhering to professional journalistic standards.

While Aftab’s favorite wrestler in AEW is Hangman Adam Page, he doesn’t have a favorite in WWE yet. However, he considers Stone Cold Steve Austin to be the greatest professional wrestler of all time. His earliest memory of watching pro wrestling was when The Rock faced The New Age Outlaws in a handicap match, but it was the John Cena vs. Edge match from Unforgiven 2006 that got him hooked. If given the chance to manage a star from the Attitude Era, he would choose The British Bulldog, as he believes Davey Boy Smith was a terrific worker and could've benefitted from having a mouthpiece for his lack of mic skills.

When not watching pro wrestling, Aftab enjoys reading science fiction and watching anime.
