Stratton also participated in the 2016 Winter Classic at Michigan, where she secured second place in the Double Mini Open Category. The Minnesota-born athlete also tried her hands at the 2016 Elite Challenge at Colorado, where she finished in the fourth spot in the Trampoline Open and fifth in Double Mini.

Following her graduation in 2019, Tiffany's mother contacted Greg Gagne, who was best known for his time at the American Wrestling Association, to train the young athlete. In 2021, Stratton was announced for the WWE Performance Center and made her official NXT debut on December 28, 2021.


Tiffany Stratton opened up about making her statement in WWE

After delivering an impressive performance against the likes of Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair, Stratton opened up about her loss at Elimination Chamber 2024 during a Post-show Digital Exclusive interview. Staying true to her heel persona, Tiffany blamed fans for her defeat.

"Obviously, Australia has great taste, I have to say. But maybe, if they would have cheered a little bit louder, I actually would have won... I'm going to fly my pretty little self home back to the United States, in first class, of course, and I'm going to show up next Friday and show everybody why I'm the center of the WWE Universe.”

Before getting eliminated by Liv Morgan, Tiffany Stratton eliminated Naomi, which was also the first elimination of the match.
