WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton has reflected on her controversial and “super personal” promo exchange with Charlotte Flair from earlier this year. While Stratton confirmed she did have to apologize for her off-script comments, she also stated that she felt her actions were “justified.”
Stratton Addresses Off-Script Promo
Speaking on Logan Paul’s Impulsive podcast, Stratton discussed the infamous promo from the lead-up to WrestleMania 41, where she brought up Charlotte Flair’s real-life failed marriages. “Things were heated, very competitive. I’m also competitive, trying to prove to Charlotte Flair I can go, I can stand up to her, I’m worthy of this title,” she said. “So yeah, sh*t got heated, we went off script. It happens. I did have to apologize.”
Feeling ‘Justified’
While she admitted to apologizing, the champion made it clear she doesn’t regret her actions. “I’m someone that can embrace being wrong. I had no problem apologizing,” Stratton stated. “I think what I did was justified, but maybe I shouldn’t have gone that far. But I do feel that I was justified by what I did.”
The heated rivalry culminated with Stratton successfully defending her title against Flair at WrestleMania 41. She is coming off another major title defense this past weekend at SummerSlam, where she defeated Jade Cargill to retain the WWE Women’s Championship.
