Looks like she will be involved in someone capacity in the QotR tournament. She was on the commercial during RAW last night.
I'd personally prefer her not to be in the final. I guess it depends who is in the bracket, including the mens (for legitimacy), but PLE appearances will likely be sparse in this 5/6 match era, and it would be a shame to waste one of those when in a country where the crowd probably won't be bothered about the match and she'll be dressed like a bin liner, plus in recent years it's felt like the middest of mid card with the likes of Woods and Zelina winning, and I'd much prefer her be a strong contender for MITB, and nobody is winning both events (and rightly so) when the rosters are so deep.
If she's beating say Bianca, Asuka and then a Liv in the final, then perhaps, but if her route is like Alba, Zelina, then Chelsea in the final then it will feel like a waste of time, and a lucrative PLE opportunity.

Travel is the hardest part of moving to the main roster to adapt to. Nia Jax has been her unsung hero on the road and done a lot to make her feel comfortable. During Elimination Chamber Nia really helped her out figuring out where's where on a PLE; they bonded through the twenty-hour plane ride and did TikToks!
Included some! www.tiktok.com/@tiffanystrattonwwe/video/7337710471786614046?lang=enA reality show with Ludwig Kaiser (like what Bianca Belair & Montez Ford have right now) might be cool one day. But it's important to establish herself and for people to know she's here to be a wrestler. She hasn't really kept in contact with many of her teammates from gymnastics and the U.S. National Team but she is getting DMs where people are surprised she's a star now in WWE. Having what feels like the entire crowd in Perth root for her is something she'll never forget. Were they building a feud with Belair before 'mania?

Out of curiosity, 7 months on, how do you guys view the Becky feud?
Did it help you become a bigger fan of Tiffany?
Has your opinion of the feud changed as time / follow up booking moved on?

I can't believe there are people who still don't think Becky Lynch is the GOAT.

I enjoyed both matches too, and had no problem with Tiff losing twice (or 3 times), as it was kind of to be expected, as long as the follow up booking was good, but that turned out awful. Firstly, Becky dropping the title 3 weeks later to Lyra didn't help as I was like how is Tiff losing twice, but then Becky losing to the next NXT opponent she faced (and a compatriot). I was thinking Becky might have held it until the end of the year, possibly dropping it back to Tiff in December when she was done, so I didn't like that at the time, plus Tiffany's NXT booking was awful from No Mercy Sept 30th through to her call up. She literally only had 4 matches in the 4 months up to the Rumble - Deadline and 3 with Fallon, she was missing lots of shows altogether or getting random 40 second backstage segments with Fallon, and she really felt like an afterthought or non factor. It turned out to be putting someone over on her way out, but it didn't need take 4 months to happen - if Roxanne is to get called up soon, then there will be a massive contrast in terms of their respective final 4 months on the brand.
So basically, I enjoyed it at the time, almost certainly became more of a fan of her because of it, she got some great opportunities like increased eyes and ratings, main eventing shows, RAW and PLE cameos etc. but the following 4 months really passed me off and I'd hate people saying Becky 'elevated' her as she was doing less and less on the show and constantly losing (lost 6 of her last 7 matches on NXT), but since her call up and how it has gone since, and what they have given her, I now appreciate that the feud will have helped her get these recent opportunities, I just wish her final 4 months in NXT weren't so poor. I'm still quite bitter about that period now, ha, but overall I think the feud was definitely positive.

First title match.
Now, do you pull the trigger and give her the belt as she is the hotter act?
Or will there be backlash for too much too soon and they cut the legs off the Bayley title run?

I love her, but it's too soon. It's times like this I want a midcard women's belt.

I agree with J that I think it's too soon to pull the trigger (and that there needs to be a midccard title for the women).
By god though, she was one of the very few positive things about SD tonight.

Yeah, too soon, or perhaps rather, too soon for Bayley to drop the title already, but hopefully Naomi can eat the pin in France. They can run Nia/Tiff vs Bayley/Naomi (assuming the Backlash challengers stay on Smackdown) after Backlash, and then Tiffany will likely have QOTR qualifiers (was in the advert), even if she doesn't make it to the actual Saudi event, and then all roads will hopefully lead to MITB and she can ideally cash in at Berlin where she would have been on the main roster 7 months instead of 3.

Once again, Nia has to come along and mess up everything.

This is where I admit I haven't had any issues with nia's matches since she returned. Some of that is due to her dance partners (Rhea and Becky), but smackdown has a lot of great talent and I think they can whip up something good

Nia attacked Naomi. After Tiffany ruined the last match. I know this thread is pro Tiffy, but Naomi should’ve won and gotten her one on one shot. Based on DA RULES
