Pro wrestler Tiffany Stratton revealed more than she had anticipated during her recent WWE Smackdown performance.
Tiffany, whose real name is Jessica Woynilko, was facing Candice LeRae on Friday (February 21) when she experienced a wardrobe malfunction that was censored with a blackout screen.
The incident occurred during the final moments of the match when Tiffany had cornered her opponent inside the ring.

Though the 25-year-old Women's Champion defeated Candice, she didn't win the night overall, as she later lost to Australian-American powerhouse Nia Jax.
This isn't Tiffany's first wardrobe mishap. In May 2024, the wrestler was forced to cover her private parts after her garment was ripped.
Before training to become a pro wrestler, the Minnesota native spent several years practicing trampoline gymnastics.

While in the developmental brand NXT, Tiffany won the NXT Women's Championship once. She was promoted to the main roster on the SmackDown brand in February 2024.
Tiffany said her wrestling persona is inspired by Paris Hilton, Sharpay Evans from High School Musical, and Sabrina Carpenter.

"I definitely have some inspiration from movie characters like Sharpay Evans from High School Musical. I love Paris Hilton; I love her style," she said in 2023 during an interview on the Under The Ring podcast.
"But for the most part, I've kind of created my own little sayings. It's all kind of been me coming up with things. All of my outfits, my gear, it's all me coming up with the concepts and trying to figure out how to get my character across when someone just looks at me."

Her signature finishing maneuver is called the "Prettiest Moonsault Ever," which she draws from her gymnastics background to execute a variation of the triple jump moonsault using the ropes.
"I have really good hand-eye coordination and my ring awareness is well. Bouncing on the ropes is super easy to me, and I've seen so many people do the basic stunning at the top moonsault," she said.
"Incorporating the bounce with the moonsault was a good way to bring my background into it and make it a little different."

Tiffany cited Charlotte Flair as her biggest inspiration.
"She's who I saw on Friday Night SmackDown and was doing all these cool tricks and flips in the ring, and immediately I was like, 'She kinda reminds me of myself.'"
She also discussed her resilience in the ring and her hopes of continuing to improve as a wrestler.
"I just feel like in my career, it's always been sink or swim, and I really truly feel like every single performance I've ever had, I've barely made it through.
"I literally just clenched my teeth, and I prayed, and somehow, each performance ends up better than the last, and that's all I really strive for. I want to keep improving and growing."
"In wrestling, you can never be perfect," she continued. "You can always keep improving your craft and getting better at promos or your character in the ring. I want to keep getting better and better.
"When I enter WrestleMania, I am going to beat The Queen, Charlotte Flair."
Tiffany will face off against her idol, Charlotte Flair, in WrestleMania 41 this April.
