Tiffany Stratton, a prominent figure in WWE’s women’s division, is reportedly preparing to return to WWE programming following a period of injury. Sources including Dave Meltzer from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter have confirmed her absence was injury-related, while BodySlam indicates she is now cleared to compete again, suggesting her WWE return is imminent.
Potential Role at WrestleMania 42
Although WWE has yet to reveal the details of Stratton’s involvement, speculation points to a significant role for her at WrestleMania 42, scheduled for April 18 and 19. Given her stature as a former WWE Women’s Champion, the company is likely to spotlight her during this major event, aiming to capitalize on her comeback momentum.
Background on Stratton’s WWE Title Reign and Departure
Tiffany Stratton last appeared on WWE TV after losing the WWE Women’s Title to Jade Cargill on the November 1, 2025, episode of Saturday Night’s Main Event. Throughout 2025, she was a central figure on Friday Night SmackDown, holding the Women’s Championship for 302 days after securing it by cashing in her Money in the Bank contract against Nia Jax on January 3.
Current State of the WWE Women’s Championship
Since Stratton’s exit, Jade Cargill has held the WWE Women’s Title without a championship defense, focusing instead on feuds involving competitors like Michin and Jordynne Grace. This ongoing dynamic sets the stage for potential storyline developments once Stratton returns to the WWE spotlight.
Anticipated Impact of Stratton’s Return
Stratton’s comeback is expected to revitalize WWE’s women’s division, especially with WrestleMania approaching. Her reappearance could influence current rivalries and reshape the championship landscape, offering WWE fans a fresh narrative heading into one of the company’s most important events of the year.
