WWE Hall Of Famer Thinks Tiffany Stratton Can Be “One Of The Greats”

As the current NXT Women’s Champion, Tiffany Stratton continues to impress with a WWE Hall of Famer thinking she can be one of the best superstars of all time.

Tiffany Stratton recently passed 100 days as the NXT Women’s Champion after winning the title at the Battleground Premium Live Event in May. At 24 years old, Stratton is one of the youngest NXT Women’s Champions of all time who only started wrestling in WWE two years ago.

This coming Tuesday on NXT, Stratton has the biggest match of her young career when she defends the NXT Women’s Title against the legendary future Hall of Famer Becky Lynch, who wants to become NXT Women’s Champion for the first time.

Booker T is a WWE Hall of Famer who sits ringside at NXT shows as an announcer, so he has seen Stratton’s rise to the top of the NXT women’s division over the last year. Booker shared his initial thoughts on Tiffany on his Hall of Fame podcast and how his opinion has changed.

“She definitely wasn’t one that I had my radar on or anything like that. She wasn’t somebody out there on the Indies that was blowing it up or anything like that. But when she gets in the ring, she performs very, very well. She seems to know all of the X’s and O’s. She seems to know exactly what she wants as far as plodding her way to get to that next level. And that next level is something I think she’s fit for.”

“I mean, I think she’s fit for the main roster. Not getting there too quickly, I think that’s been a plus. Just because one thing about this thing, man, preparation is the only luck you’re ever going to have. And for someone like Tiffany Stratton, coming from that gymnast background, not being one that’s been at home, out there on the Indies doing this and she needed that. But I think she’s going to be ready and willing and able to, you know, for the task at hand come Tuesday [against Becky Lynch]. But for that main roster when that time comes as well.”

Tiffany Stratton has all the tools to be one of the greats according to Booker T

As Booker T continued by saying that Tiffany has everything you want in a star.

“That’s the only thing you think about. She looks good, she checks off all the boxes as far as what you’re looking for in a star. I mean, she really does. And the thing is, just think for Tiffany is going to be not falling in those potholes along the way, knowing how to evade those certain obstacles and then being able to go straight through those obstacles when the time comes as well.”

“But I think she has all the talent in the world. If she can just keep her head on straight, she’s going to be one of the greats. I really believe that.”

One wrestler on the main roster who hopes to see Tiffany Stratton there soon is Ludwig Kaiser, who is her boyfriend. Kaiser is on the Raw brand as part of the Imperium group.
