(Context: Stratton had posted a tweet/response to a tweet re: Bianca with a video clip of something supposedly humorous. The last few moments of the clip had the audio [not Tiffany’s voice, the video] going “black bitch” or something similar. The clip/tweet was pulled very quickly but not before it was seen by some fans and hit the news.)

In regard to numerous emails we’ve received today about the status of WWE star Tiffany Stratton there is nothing to a rumor that Stratton’s match tomorrow on Friday Night Smackdown has been pulled from the FOX broadcast.

There has been a social media rumor making the rounds over the last day that Stratton was in trouble for a posting she allegedly made, which then fed into a story that her Queen of the Ring tournament match against Bianca Belair was pulled. It has not and was not, we are told.

After speaking to several credible sources, we are told she’s absolutely not in trouble for anything internally within WWE and that Stratton’s been nothing but praised by management and other talents since moving to the main roster a few months back.

Despite the rumors, we are told that Stratton’s status within the company is unchanged and she remains on good footing, as she’s seen as someone with a very high upside by management.

Edit: Instagram not Twitter.

    honestly don’t know why anyone would think someone being racist would get punished in the wwe considering they let straight on qanon and anti vaxx people walk free especially in a company run by a guy who famously did blackface.
