Tiffany Stratton vs. Candice LeRae vs. Cargill was better.

Nia Jax and Bianca Belair coming out to stand around ringside helped; Bianca repeatedly stopped Nia from butting in on Jade's business, which opened the door for Indi Hartwell to ram Cargill into the ringside post. That, in turn, left LeRae and Stratton alone to finish the match. They worked a nice exchange of missed and on the button moonsaults.

This wasn't a stunning match people will be talking about for weeks, or anything, but it was good to see Tiffany move on to the MITB ladder match. There's something brewing between her and reigning Queen Of The Ring Nia as well, so keep an eye on that. Maybe they'll eventually challenge for the Women's Tag-Team Titles.

Overall, creative did well to excuse Cargill's loss and put the spotlight on Stratton. She was always the most deserving of this trio, and should be considered a real contender for that Money In The Bank briefcase. 'Tiffy Time' incoming? Don't bet against it. Woman's the future of this division.
