During her appearance on the most recent episode of the The Babyfaces podcast, WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton commented on the in-ring promo that she had with Charlotte Flair on last Friday’s SmackDown.
“Being so new into this business and being so new as champion, I don’t think she really expected me to stand up to her and I don’t think she expected me to, almost clap back. All I have to say is, it’s live TV, stakes are high. We’re going into WrestleMania. I have the title, I want to keep the title. I’m going to pull out every stop that I can and people want to see our match. I think we did a very good job or getting people wanting to see our match and invested in our story. Now, I’m ready to put on the best women’s match ever and ready to go to war.“
Stratton also talks on WWE’s European Tour, life on the road and more!
Stratton is set to defend the WWE Women’s Championship against Flair at WrestleMania 41.
Reports have indicated the reference Stratton made about Flair’s three failed marriages, Flair making fun of Stratton’s voice and saying her (Stratton’s) real-life boyfriend, Ludwig Kaiser was not part of the initial script for the segment. WWE has edited these parts of the in-ring verbal exchange out of their videos. However, as of this writing, the full unedited version is still on the USA Network’s YouTube Channel.
