“I definitely would say it was Becky Lynch for me. Becky came down to NXT, and we had a little feud. We had a match on NXT TV, and then we went to No Mercy, and I also got to go on the road loops with her, and I got to be on the road and stuff. So, that time for me was a time where I was doubting myself a lot. But in the very end of it all, I had learned so much and I had gained so much confidence from just being in the ring with Becky Lynch. It was definitely after the No Mercy match where I was like, ‘Okay, I think I can actually be good at this one day or be like a ring general one day.’ Because I was in the ring with Becky and I learned so much. I learned how to like call matches on the fly and work on the fly and stuff like that. So I think Becky has a lot to do with me and my confidence. Because a couple months later, I got called up to the main roster, and I really think No Mercy was the match that put me on the map, and I think, main roster saw potential in me. So, Becky Lynch is definitely somebody that gave me a lot of confidence, and I learned so much from.” —Tiffany Stratton, WWE Women’s Champion
