This week on SmackDown, Tiffany Stratton and Charlotte Flair engaged in a fiery war of words. The two stars unleashed scathing verbal shots ahead of their highly anticipated clash at WrestleMania. However, things quickly turned personal when The Buff Barbie brought up Flair’s past, including her history of divorces.

Not one to back down, The Queen fired back by claiming that Stratton’s boyfriend, Ludwig Kaiser, had been sliding into her DMs. In response, the 34-year-old star posted the popular Shawn Michaels meme that reads, “Please do not flatter yourself.” The post quickly grabbed fans’ attention, as it was a clear shot at Flair’s claim and an attempt to shut down the rumor in typical Kaiser fashion.

Additionally, it was a bold promo by both women, as their personal animosity was clearly on display throughout the segment. Many believe the WWE Women’s Champion’s fiery response was a calculated clapback at Flair for allegedly going off script during their split-screen exchange a few weeks ago on SmackDown. Regardless, the promo has skyrocketed the hype for their WrestleMania showdown.

Recently, the 39-year-old veteran claimed she had no intention of burying The Buff Barbie on SmackDown. According to her, she was simply performing at her usual level, while Stratton was down bad and couldn’t match her status. As a result, what seemed like just another day at work for the WWE legend came across as a complete burial of the rising star.

Overall, fans didn’t waste a moment in roasting The Buff Barbie and her boyfriend.

Reports reveal real heat between Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton

Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton delivered a rather awkward segment on this week’s SmackDown, leaving many fans confused about what was actually going on.

According to Wrestling Observer Radio, it was Flair who went off script first, prompting Tiffany Stratton to simply retaliate with her own remarks. Additionally, Stratton’s exit from the ring wasn’t part of the original plan either. It was reportedly a spontaneous move—a coping mechanism by the WWE Women’s Champion to handle the unexpected situation.

The report also hinted at real-life tension between both ladies, which has been causing some headaches for WWE’s creative team. Despite the behind-the-scenes drama, fans have high expectations for their WrestleMania clash.
