Below are a couple of top WWE news stories of the day, featuring Tiffany Stratton, Dominik Mysterio & more.
• Tonight’s episode of SmackDown kicked off with WWE Women’s Champion Nia Jax and Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan having a heated promo segment.
Jax promised to capture the Crown Jewel Championship. Liv brushed off Jax’s confidence, remarking, “She thinks she’s special, but she’s not.”
Standing her ground, Liv reminded Jax of her experience and determination as a champion, pointing out that she had previously defeated Jax. She confidently declared, “If anyone is going to be champion, it’s going to be Liv Morgan.”
Then Tiffany Stratton entered the scene, hinting that “Tiffy Time” might arrive at Crown Jewel with a cash-in her Money In The Bank contract. She humorously wondered aloud if cashing-in on Liv would come with Dominik Mysterio, joking that she could use a bit of “dirty” in her life.
You can watch it below:
Liv fired back, suggesting Tiffany already has enough dirty in her life. The exchange ended when Tiffany struck Liv. This led to a singles match between them.
Morgan went on to pin Stratton. After the match, Nia crushed Liv with the Annihilator.
• Sean Ross Sapp reported earlier that Baron Corbin, Indi Hartwell and Tegan Nox are leaving WWE.
