Tiffany Stratton is once again the WWE Women’s Champion, but her latest title win did spark a positive response. Her MITB cash-in against Chelsea Green at Crown Jewel was subject to immense backlash. However, the reported backstage reaction has been quite different.

The 2026 Crown Jewel event featured the match between Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan and the then-WWE Women’s Champion Chelsea Green. The closing moments saw Green catching Morgan off guard with a roll-up and scoring the pinfall victory.

Green celebrated with the people at ringside before receiving the Women’s Crown Jewel Championship and its ring. She then cut an emotional promo in the ring.

However, her celebration didn’t last long. Stratton made her way to the ring with her Money in the Bank briefcase. While it felt like she was targeting Morgan initially, Stratton shocked everyone by hitting Green with the briefcase.

She officially cashed in her contract, hit the finisher, and pinned Green to win the WWE Women’s Championship.

Tiffany Stratton’s title win became a major talking point, and much of the online response was negative.

During a recent Q&A session, WrestleVotes was asked about the backlash surrounding the cash-in and the high number of dislikes on WWE’s social media content.

According to WrestleVotes, the negative reactions haven’t caused much concern backstage. The outlet explained that WWE sees engagement as the important factor, regardless of fans’ approval or disappointment.

“I know there were a lot of dislikes on social media, but that’s just as good as a like. As long as there’s an interaction, they don’t care,”.

Moreover, Stratton hasn’t exactly been trying to win back the support of unhappy fans.

She recently took to her Instagram Stories and shared a picture with the message, “Tiffy 2 X Hoes Mad.”



Interestingly, Stratton’s title win reportedly serves a bigger purpose for WWE.

The company is reportedly interested in turning her heel again after feeling her babyface run didn’t turn her into the megastar they had hoped for. Her cash-in on Green could be the first major step in that direction.
