WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton has revealed the shocking and violent real-life incident that led to her five-month hiatus from NXT in 2022. In a new interview, she detailed a road rage incident that ended with her suffering a broken bone in her face.
‘We Start F*cking Brawling’
Speaking on Logan Paul’s Impulsive podcast, Stratton told a story she had never shared before. She explained that after an NXT match, she cut someone off in a parking garage, which led to a confrontation.
“A guy gets out of the car. So then I get out of the car. And we’re talking shit… then his girlfriend gets out of the car. And I started talking shit with the girlfriend. And I push her. She pushes me back,” Stratton recalled. “We start fucking brawling.”
‘The Guy Just F*cking Stomps Right On My Face’
The situation then took a much more serious and violent turn. “She takes her long-ass nails, digs them in my braid, and gets me down on the ground,” Stratton continued. “And this is where it takes a turn. The guy just fucking stomps right on my face. I broke a face bone. Nobody knows this… Broke a face bone. So that’s why I was out for so long in NXT.” She added that the incident left a foot mark on her face for a long time and she still has no feeling in one of her teeth.
After recovering from the injury, Stratton went on to have a successful run in NXT, capturing the NXT Women’s Championship. She is now a top star on SmackDown.
