WWE SMACKDOWN REPORT: TIFFANY CELEBRATES, DON'T MESS WITH FATU, THE TAG TEAM DIVISION, MICHIN VERSUS GREEN, AND MORE

By Richard Trionfo on 2025-01-10 23:00:00

We are back and Smackdown Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton makes her way to the ring.

Byron Saxton joins Tiffany in the ring and he recounts what happened last week.  He congratulates Tiffany.

Tiffany thanks Byron and she says it's Tiffy Time.  What a Tiffy turn of events.  Less than a year ago, she made her debut on Smackdown and she became Ms. Money in the Bank.  At 25 years old, she is better than all of your favorites and she is your Women's Champion.

Byron asks about  Nia and Tiffany says Nia didn't bully her.  Tiffany says she befriended Nia and Nia trusted her.  Nia thinks she is stupid and who is the stupid one now.  She thought Tiffany was naive and a dumb blonde.  Tiffany says she made Nia believe that.  Nia let her guard down and Tiffany says she stole Nia's most treasured possession.  Tiffany says she is at the Tiffy top.  

Nia Jax interrupts and she makes her way to the stage.

Nia calls Tiffany an ungrateful little s***.  Right now, she could kill Tiffany.  You are standing there saying you made a fool of her and you are at the Tiffy top.  You are nothing without her.  Nia says she made Tiffany.  Congrats on rubbing two brain cells together to do that.  You took advantage and it took long enough.  Nia says now you are having your moment.  Nia mocks Tiffany as she enters the ring.

Nia says time's up.  Now, either you give her her title back, or she will take it from her.

Bayley's music plays and she makes her way to the stage.

Bayley tells Nia to shut the hell up.  Bayley says if that was the plan all along, Bayley got her because she thought Tiffany was stupid.  Bayley says she knows that Nia is stupid.  You made Tiffany and groomed her under your wing and Tiffany still outsmarted you.  Bayley chortles.  Bayley says she knows this is Tiffany's moment of glory.  Bayley says the only reason Nia won the title was because of you and Nia kept you around so you wouldn't take the title.  Bayley says she should be the one to take it from her.

Naomi and Bianca Belair come out and Naomi says to slow things down.  Naomi says she had Nia beat last week and if it wasn't for Little Miss Tiffer, she would be holding two titles.  If anyone wants to fight Tiffany for the title, they have to see her first.

Nia tells Naomi no one cares about her.

Naomi and Nia get in each other's face and then things break down and everyone fights with Nia but Nia fights them off.  Bianca gets on Nia's back.  Tiffany with a Prettiest Moonsault Ever onto everyone in the ring and then she leaves.

Nick Aldis comes out and he says he would like to interrupt this meeting of the minds.  Since you four want to get your hands on Ms. Stratton so much, you will face each other in a Number One Contender Match, now.
