Tiffany Stratton reflects on how far she's come since joining the NXT roster.
Tiffany Stratton had her first match on November 16, 2021, when she defeated Amari Miller on WWE 205 Live. Not even two years later, Tiffany sits at the "Tiffy-top" as WWE NXT Women's Champion.
During a recent appearance on Sports Guys Talking Wrestling, Stratton reflected on her growth as a performer, saying that it is what she is most proud of when looking at her short time in NXT.
"I would have to say and just my growth within such a short amount of time [is what she's most proud of]. I thought I was making progress. Last year when I first debuted, I could feel myself get better every time and I never really got confirmation of that," she said. "A lot of times people will tell you the things that you're doing wrong, which is exactly what you need to get better, but nobody kind of tells you, 'Oh, you're doing everything right. Just keep doing what you're doing.' So to be champion now, it kind of just solidifies that I have truly actually gotten so much better since the day I debuted, and it just confirms everything that I thought back then."
As Women's Champion now, she knows she has to live up to the Legacy set forth by names like Shayna Baszler, IYO SKY, Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, and others that preceded her. Tiffany says she is looking forward to filling the shoes of her predecessors and believes that her title reign could be one of the best.
"Of course, I know I have big shoes to fill. I know I'm capable of filling those shoes. I have no problem proving that every week and proving that my title reign could be one of the best title reigns that NXT has ever seen."
In order for that statement to become true, she will need to hold on to her title at WWE NXT Great American Bash when she faces Thea Hail in a Submission Match. Fans can get her thoughts on that match here.
