Tiffany Stratton Backs Decision To Move WWE WrestleMania

Tiffany Stratton loves Las Vegas.

Back in June, WWE announced that WrestleMania 42 would be held in Las Vegas, just 12 months after the company took WrestleMania 41 to the same venue.

The announcement represented an unusual late change for WWE, as The Rock had announced on SmackDown in February that the event would be held in New Orleans. But while WWE fans made it known they weren’t happy with the change, it seems not everyone has the same view.

In a new interview with Sidewalks Entertainment, Tiffany Stratton said she was happy to see WrestleMania head back to Vegas for the second consecutive year. She said that the city will always have a special place in her heart as it was the site of her first WrestleMania.

“Last year was actually my first WrestleMania ever. I was super nervous. It was in Las Vegas. So I felt like it was the perfect state for my first-ever WrestleMania. I feel like Las Vegas is iconic. It’s the sports entertainment capital of the world. So it was the perfect place to host WrestleMania.

WrestleMania is like the Super Bowl of wrestling of WWE. They have literally something for everybody in Las Vegas. This year they’re going to have Raw. They’re going to have SmackDown. They’re going to have NXT Stand and Deliver there. There’s going to be after parties. There’s going to be watch parties all along the strip. So I’m excited to go back.

I’m going to make my time there super fun and hopefully do a bunch of things along the strip. So yeah, I’m excited to go back. It’s like kind of nostalgic for me. That’s where I had my first ever WrestleMania. So yeah, I’m excited.”

Tiffany Stratton Had No Plans To Become A Wrestler

During the same interview, Tiffany Stratton admitted that she never originally planned to work for WWE. Instead, she’d been training as a gymnast and targeting a spot on the U.S. Olympic team.

However, her dreams were scuppered by injury, and this led her to move into CrossFit, bodybuilding, and eventually pro wrestling.

Next up for Stratton is a date with Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer at Crown Jewel in Perth, Australia.
