8 New Directions For WWE After Money In The Bank 2026
8. Tiffany Stratton Turning On Chelsea Green
This writer decided to stamp his little feet when Tiffany Stratton tore down that MITB briefcase instead of Roxanne Perez. Y'see, yours truly had decided that Perez winning the case would've lowkey annoyed Liv Morgan and led to that much-needed Judgment Day split. That became much more pressing once Liv won the Women's World Title later on.
Most following events over on SmackDown will know that Tiffany's impending split story with bestie Chelsea Green doesn't really need Money In The Bank. WWE could've got there without it rather easily, but Hunter clearly felt like Stratton teasing cash-ins on Chelsea would up the champ's anxiety whilst she's being chased by Nikki Bella, Nia Jax and more.
Fair enough.
Thinking about it, Tiffy might imply going after Morgan’s Women’s World Title at first to tease that match, but it’s pretty clear that Stratton will go rogue on Chelsea at some point. That heel turn is overdue, and the boos Tiffany got when jousting with Roxanne at MITB prove it. There's something rather forced about her babyface act, and that's been the case for a while - all she really does is smile an insincere smile and yell her catchphrase.
We've sort of been here before with Stratton, albeit as a villain. She teased cashing in on her old pal Nia countless times before finally going for it, so expect something fairly similar for the remaining months of 2026 between Tiff and Green. Perhaps things will pan out differently for that Women's Title run sequel, eh? They might have to.
