Things got crazy on SmackDown.
Reaction To SmackDown Promo
In case you’re living under a rock and don’t know by now, last Friday on SmackDown, things got heated between Charlotte and Tiffany Stratton during their in-ring promo that saw both take some personal jabs at each other.
Tiffany took a shot at Charlotte’s marriages, while Charlotte brought Ludwig Kaiser, Tiffany’s real life boyfriend, into the mix. Things did not go as planned and both went off script. Plus, Ludwig posted a tweet indicating Charlotte shouldn’t flatter herself about him “being in her DM’s”.
Now, Fightful Select provided a backstage update on the situation and the reaction to Ludwig’s involvement.
Charlotte and Tiffany had a war of words.
We’ve heard a lot more details regarding Tiffany Stratton and Charlotte Flair’s Smackdown promo, which largely lines up with what Wrestling Observer Live recounting.
The general consensus backstage was that Charlotte Flair went off script first, calling herself the “nepo queen,” which didn’t garner much heat. However, when Charlotte began mocking Tiffany Stratton’s voice, a number of people backstage felt like Tiffany Stratton “needed to fight back,” but that going personal to that degree without it being cleared was ill-advised. Neither the line about Charlotte’s marriage, nor Charlotte’s Ludwig Kaiser line was cleared. Charlotte addressing the crowd booing her directly also wasn’t planned but was called “run of the mill ad libbing that would never get anyone any heat.”
Digital producers were instructed to edit the personal relationship references and Charlotte making fun of Tiffany’s voice from the Youtube editions. The general reaction backstage was some confusion when Charlotte emulated Tiffany, and general “oh shit,” when Tiffany and Charlotte got deeply personal.
There was heat on both women for the situation, which was referred to as a “wreck.” We didn’t hear of any issues backstage afterwards. Many at WWE Raw got a laugh out of Ludwig Kaiser being a good sport and playing it up.
Fans are now eagerly awaiting to see what happens next, as the previously lackluster build has now brought in some intrigue after the un-scripted promo.
