During a recent appearance on A Shot of Brandi, WWE Women’s US Champion Tiffany Stratton spoke with Brandi Rhodes about Jade Cargill being her toughest competitor in WWE. Below are some highlights:
On Her Goals for the Rest of the Year
“So SummerSlam is in Minnesota. That is my hometown. So I hope to be showcased in some sort of way. I would love to be on the SummerSlam card, hopefully. In my personal life, like I’ve grown so much in the past year, I feel like I just like have like a new way of looking at things. Like, I just feel like life happens for a reason. Like everything just happens for a reason, and I wouldn’t change anything. Like I just feel like I’ve really found myself in the past year, and I’m like excited to kind of like dive into wrestling with like this new mindset I have.”
On Trying To Focus on What She Can Control
“I’m just trying to like focus on the things that I like can control, you know, like my wrestling matches, my promos, and you know, staying in shape outside of the ring and making sure like my mental’s good outside of the ring and stuff like that, and everything else like it happens for a reason.”
Tiffany Stratton on Jade Cargill Being Her Toughest Competitor
“I’m gonna have to go with Jade Cargill. I was on a really long streak there. I was the champion for 302 days. That’s amazing. Almost a full year. Yes, I can’t believe that, my first-ever title reign was 302 days, like that’s insane. Yeah, and then me and Jade had a couple of back-and-forth matches, which I am super proud of. I feel like me and Jade had some really good matches, and then unfortunately I got injured, and she beat me for the title back in November. So I’d have to say, Jade. Jade Cargill.”
Tiffany Stratton beat Jade Cargill to retain the WWE Women’s Title at SummerSlam last year. Cargill later beat Stratton in the rematch, winning the title belt, at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event in November.
