Tiffany Stratton revealed she scrapped her original "Tiffy Twist" WWE finishing move due to fear of injury. She replaced it with the Prettiest Moonsault Ever as her finisher.
Tiffany Stratton revealed that her first WWE tryout was abruptly halted due to COVID-19 after she had already dropped out of college to pursue wrestling. WWE flew the tryout participants to the Performance Center but sent them home the same day because the facility was needed for Raw and SmackDown tapings during the shutdown. Stratton then focused on bodybuilding while her wrestling school was closed and continued emailing WWE requesting another tryout opportunity.
Tiffany Stratton revealed on Brandi Rhodes' "Shot of Brandi" that she originally used a twisting Vader Bomb called the "Tiffy Twist" as her WWE finisher before switching to her current moonsault. Stratton explained she retired the Tiffy Twist after experiencing awkward landings and not completing the twist consistently, which made her fear potential injury from coming into the ground so fast while twisting. She said her springboard moonsault reflects her background as a trampoline gymnast and provides something unique that not many competitors can perform.
WWE is reportedly not planning to punish Ludwig Kaiser following his recent arrest in Orange County, Florida over an alleged battery incident from April 23rd. Kaiser's legal team has filed a motion asking the court to allow him to travel out of state and internationally for WWE and AAA commitments while his misdemeanor battery case remains active.

MVP revealed that he initially thought WWE was playing a prank on him when he first received his iconic bodysuit for his pay-per-view debut, as it looked like a "figure skating outfit" rather than the sleek, Tron-like design he had seen from the art department.

Vince McMahon ultimately approved the look, telling MVP that his ego would get the outfit over on television.
MVP revealed on his podcast that he left WWE due to his issues with Triple H, calling WWE's Chief Content Officer "a coward and a liar." MVP claimed that both he and Bobby Lashley were unable to get one-on-one meetings with Triple H to discuss their creative direction, leading MVP to convince Lashley not to re-sign with WWE so they could reunite with Shelton Benjamin in AEW as the Hurt Syndicate. MVP emphasized that he and Lashley chose not to re-sign rather than being released, and stated he has no animosity toward WWE as a company, only toward Triple H personally.

Vince Russo criticized Triple H's new WWE contract extension and pay raise during an appearance on the Two Man Power Trip podcast, stating that Triple H should have been fired instead of receiving a raise. Russo cited declining ratings, WWE's recent release of 23 talent members, poor WrestleMania sales, and attendance issues as reasons why he believes Triple H failed in his role as Chief Content Officer. Triple H's new multi-year deal was announced internally by WWE President Nick Khan during a TKO all-hands virtual town hall.
