Tiffany Stratton Wins Women's Money in the Bank Ladder Match
Stratton secured her second briefcase after a dangerous ladder match that featured several high-risk maneuvers.
Tiffany Stratton emerged victorious in the chaotic women's Money in the Bank ladder match, claiming the coveted briefcase for the second time in her career. The event, held in New Orleans, saw Stratton outlast Roxanne Perez, Sol Ruca, Lola Vice, Jacy Jayne, and Lash Legend in a match described by WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque as one that would make fans "hold my breath until it’s over."
Stratton's victory was hard-fought and not without peril. Early in the match, while attempting a swanton dive from a ladder positioned outside the ring, Stratton appeared to misjudge her rotation and slammed her head onto the ground. The risky maneuver caused a momentary hush in the crowd as officials rushed to check on her. Despite the frightening impact, Stratton was able to continue the match and ultimately secure the win.
A Match of High-Risk Moments
The women's ladder match was punctuated by several dangerous spots. Sol Ruca executed a frog splash from the top turnbuckle onto Lash Legend, who was lying on a ladder positioned between the ring apron and the announce table. The impact sent both competitors crashing through the ladder.
Another notable incident involved Jacy Jayne and Lola Vice. As Jayne reached for the briefcase atop a ladder, Vice caught her in a chokehold. The two fell backward onto an adjacent ladder, which tipped over, sending them both sliding out of the ring onto the floor. Both appeared to recover, though they were seemingly less involved in the final moments of the match.
In a tense sequence, Ruca found herself hanging from the briefcase hook after Jayne pushed down the ladder she shared with Stratton. Ruca dropped onto Jayne, Stratton, and Legend, but Stratton narrowly avoided entanglement and continued her ascent.
Stratton's win marks her second time holding the Money in the Bank briefcase. She previously won in 2024 and successfully cashed in her contract on Nia Jax to win the WWE Women's Championship. With this latest victory, she once again holds a guaranteed title shot.
