Much has been said in the build to Tiffany Stratton defending the Women’s Championship against Charlotte Flair at WWE WrestleMania 41 next Saturday night, whether it be the progression in the storyline or the controversial segment from a week ago where the two stars went off script.
While speaking to Jan Murphy of the Onefall podcast, Stratton praised Flair as one of her idols and emphasized the importance of this match.
Stratton stated, “I think this match doesn’t even start with the past six weeks. It doesn’t even start with her winning the Royal Rumble and her picking me. I think it starts with she’s the reason why I got into wrestling. She is who I looked up to, who I saw on my TV screen, who I idolized, and I had it already set in my mind that she is a dream match of mine, even before I got signed to WWE. So this goes back much farther than that. She’s obviously one of my idols, and at WrestleMania, I think this is when I solidify that I am the new generation and I’m here to take her place.”
