Tiffany Stratton has officially qualified for the 2026 Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, defeating Tatum Paxley and Candice LeRae in a Triple Threat Match on this week’s SmackDown in Denver.
The match opened the show, and all three women came close to winning at several points. Late in the match, Paxley connected with a 450 splash, but Stratton came out of nowhere to hit LeRae with the Prettiest Moonsault Ever and score the pinfall.
The win gave Stratton the sixth and final spot in the women’s ladder match. She joins Sol Ruca, Lola Vice, Women’s United States Champion Jacy Jayne, Roxanne Perez and Lash Legend.

This will be Stratton’s second Money in the Bank Ladder Match. She won the 2024 edition and cashed in the briefcase on Nia Jax in January 2025 to become WWE Women’s Champion. LeRae was also in the qualifying match Stratton won that year.
Stratton also won the Women’s United States Championship this year. That reign ended on August 14, when Jayne defeated her on SmackDown, and the two will now meet again in the ladder match.
Money in the Bank is set for Saturday, October 10, at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans.
