Tiffany Stratton won the WWE Women's Championship on the January 1st episode of WWE SmackDown.
Stratton cashed in her Money in the Bank briefcase and hit the prettiest moonsault ever on Jax, who she betrayed by hitting her with the briefcase.
After Stratton hit Jax with the briefcase, Bianca Belair took out Jax with the KOD. Stratton pulled Belair out of the ring and tossed her aside before officially cashing in.

Before she cashed in, Stratton helped Jax retain the WWE Women's Championship against Naomi. Stratton ran down and faked a cash in before hitting Naomi with the briefcase. Nia followed up with the Annihilator for the victory.
IT’S TIFFY TIME!!!
