WWE Superstar Tiffany Stratton recently faced a major backlash from fans following her controversial post on Instagram concerning Jade Cargill. A new report has provided details on if the former NXT Women's Champion has any backstage heat due to her recent actions.

Stratton has firmly established herself on the WWE main roster just a few weeks after getting promoted from the white and gold brand. However, the 25-year-old star recently came under scrutiny as she posted a controversial clip on Instagram that had racist remarks regarding Jade Cargill. The Buff Barbie seemingly did not listen to the audio in the fan-made clip and posted it without checking. She quickly deleted the video after backlash.

While the SmackDown Superstar has been receiving flak from fans since the incident, there is reportedly no heat on her in WWE. PWInsider reported that Tiffany Stratton was not in trouble for anything and her status remains unchanged. As previously noted, The Buff Barbie's scheduled Queen of the Ring tournament match against Bianca Belair will also take place on the upcoming episode of SmackDown. The duo will collide for a place in the semifinals of the 2024 Queen of the Ring tournament.

What the future has in store for the former NXT Women's Champion remains to be seen.


Former WWE head writer believes Tiffany Stratton needs to change her ring attire

Tiffany Stratton has been on a rapid ascend since moving to WWE's main roster. The 25-year-old star is already in the quarterfinals of the 2024 Queen of the Ring tournament and is one of the favourites to go all the way.

Despite being a heel, Stratton often receives the loudest pops in any arena. While speaking with Sportskeeda Wrestling's The Wrestling Outlaws podcast, former WWE head writer Vince Russo had a unique solution for The Buff Barbie to get heat, stating that she should cover herself up more.

"Bro, let's be honest, she wears less clothes out there than anybody on the roster," Vince Russo said. "Way less. Way less to the fact that you're watching her matches because something's gonna pop out. Bro, guys ain't gonna boo that! Right there, if she really wanted to get heat, the first thing she's gonna do is cover that s**t up! 'You're gonna have to pay! You wanna see this, man? You're gonna have to pay top dollar.' That gets her heat."

Tiffany Stratton defeated Mia Yim in the first round to book her place in the second round (quarterfinals) of the 2024 Queen of the Ring tournament. She also holds victories over Liv Morgan and Naomi in a short time on the blue brand.
