Ex-Women’s World Champion Says She’s “Retired” After Losing Recent Big Opportunity

Tiffany Stratton secured her first WWE Women’s Championship defense against Bayley on SmackDown. The champion, who captured the title from Nia Jax on January 3, 2025, continued her momentum following a cash-in opportunity that involved Bianca Belair.

On Instagram, Bayley responded to Stratton’s post with a lighthearted comment:

Can’t believe you retired me

The statement was made in jest, as Bayley remains active in WWE programming, particularly on NXT where she is scheduled to team with Giulia against Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade next week.
