On the April 4th episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Tiffany Stratton escalated her WrestleMania feud with a hard-hitting promo. Taking at her opponent Charlotte Flair, she took shots at her personal life. The WWE Women’s Champion remarked the Queen’s real-life three divorces. In WWE Unreal later it was revealed that WWE CCO Triple H requested Stratton to apologize for her remarks. Recently even her statement also came on the Impaulsive podcast, where Stratton reflected on the incident.
Chatting with Logan Paul, Tiffany acknowledged that Charlotte Flair is a legend in this industry. However, at that time, she was the champion, and things got intense during that exchange. Even though she feels it went wrong, Tiffany knows that’s just a testament to them being fiercely competitive. “The moment got heated, and we veered off script, it happens. I was asked to apologize, and I did,” Stratton said.
“You may reign as Queen in the ring, Charlotte, but outside it, you’re nothing. When I defeat you at WrestleMania, you’ll be as alone as you are in your personal life. What’s your record now? 0-3? Woooo!”

When asked if apologizing was difficult, she responded, “No. I’m someone that can fully embrace being in the wrong. I had no problem apologizing.” On whether she felt her promo was inappropriate, Stratton admitted that a part of her still feels justified for those words but also realizes that she had gone too far.
At WrestleMania 41, Stratton and Flair faced off in a high-stakes match, with Stratton emerging victorious, retaining her WWE Women’s Championship.
Tiffany Stratton Shares A Story Of Her ‘Legit’ NXT Brawl
On the same podcast, Tiffany Stratton shared a previously untold story about a physical altercation that occurred during her NXT days, which led to a serious facial injury. Initially hesitant, she was not sure to tell the story or not, but still proceeded. After a match, Stratton inadvertently cut off another car in the NXT parking garage, sparking a heated exchange.
The other driver began yelling, prompting Stratton to pull over and confront them. A man exited the vehicle, and Stratton, undeterred, got out to argue. The situation escalated when the man’s girlfriend joined in, trading insults with Stratton. The verbal spat turned physical when Stratton pushed the woman, who retaliated, leading to a brawl.
During the fight, the woman grabbed Stratton’s braid, pulling her to the ground. The situation worsened when the man intervened, stomping on Stratton’s face, causing a broken facial bone and a visible foot mark. “I still don’t have feeling in my tooth,” she revealed, explaining her extended absence from NXT due to the injury.
Fearing legal repercussions, Stratton avoided pursuing the couple but faced a challenge when she realized she’d left her phone at the scene. Returning to retrieve it while emotional and shaken, she noticed the couple chasing her, heightening the ordeal.
