Say Hello To WWE SmackDown's Newest TWO Signings

Nick Aldis inked deals with multiple wrestlers on this week's WWE SmackDown.

Both Naomi and Tiffany Stratton officially joined the SmackDown ranks on this past Friday's episode. The pair signed contracts with brand GM Nick Aldis, and they'll now bolster the women's division heading into WrestleMania 40.

Naomi's return at the Royal Rumble was a welcome one. Her WWE story ended abruptly when she walked out alongside Sasha Banks in 2022, so it's nice she's back and can contribute after an excellent period in IMPACT Wrestling/TNA.

Stratton was a leading light on NXT, and she's obviously somebody Triple H and pals have high, high hopes for. She's a star in the making. Tiffany got her main roster career off to a flyer by defeating OC member Michin on SmackDown, but don't be surprised if she gets some promo time soon to start introducing her stuck-up character to casual fans.

Aldis was also shown trying to agree deals with free agents Bron Breakker and Jade Cargill too, but Raw GM Adam Pearce halted that get-together. It looks like both will probably sign exclusively with the flagship soon instead, which infuriated Aldis.

Naomi and Stratton are nifty additions, at least.
