Ahead of the big Crown Jewel Championship match, WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax came out to hype up her bout against Liv Morgan on November 2. The segment led to Morgan appearing with Dominik Mysterio and reminding her that the last time they faced off, the Women's World Champion came out on top.
Tiffany Stratton came out and announced that she intended to cash in her Money in the Bank briefcase at Crown Jewel but refused to specify which of the two champions she would choose. She even said she needed a little "dirty" in her life and wondered whether Dominik Mysterio would come along, teasing to steal him away from Liv Morgan.

It led to a match between Liv Morgan and Tiffany Stratton, in which the Women's World Champion won. The latter hasn't been on a good streak since winning the Money in the Bank briefcase, but it has been pointed out that the MITB winner is often made to look weak ahead of their cash-in.
Whether that happens in Saudi Arabia or elsewhere is yet to be seen, but she is in a prime spot to cash in on either champion at Crown Jewel.
If she does go through with the cash-in, it will be interesting to see who she chooses. Perhaps it's going to be dragged out further than Crown Jewel.
