Tiffany Stratton retains over Charlotte Flair at WWE WrestleMania 41

The WWE Women’s Championship remains with Tiffany Stratton.
Stratton defeated Charlotte Flair in the semi-main event of Saturday’s night one of WWE WrestleMania 41, retaining the Women’s title over the 14-tim former Women’s champ. After a Prettiest Moonsault Ever, Stratton pinned Flair to retain the title at Las Vegas’s Allegiant Stadium.
The champ did not emerge from the match unscathed, as Stratton appeared to have chipped her front teeth in the bout, and also had a welt on her forehead.
The story of the match focused on Flair targeting Stratton’s legs to set her up for a potential Figure Eight, but not being able to bridge into the move after Stratton attacked Flair’s heavily braced left knee. Flair missed more than a year of ring time after suffering a torn ACL in a December 2023 match.
Stratton’s title defense was the third of her current reign as WWE Women’s Champion, and her first in over two months. Stratton cashed in her Money in the Bank contract on Nia Jax on the January 3 SmackDown to win the gold for the first time.
Flair’s WrestleMania record drops to 4-4 after the loss, while Stratton’s victory came in her WrestleMania debut.
