Tiffany Stratton addresses the future of her on-screen pairing with Rhea Ripley, teasing that the alliance is not over.

WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton has indicated that her on-screen partnership with Rhea Ripley is not concluded. In a recent interview with Billboard, Stratton addressed the fan-dubbed “Strapley” alliance.

“To me, Strapley is never over. She has a special place in my heart, and I’m going to try and make Rhea Ripley wear pink. It’s going to happen one day. I guarantee it,” Stratton stated.

The champion’s comments follow a confrontation between the two on the June 6, 2025, episode of SmackDown. During the segment, Ripley, a competitor in the upcoming Money in the Bank ladder match, interrupted Stratton.

“I know what it feels like to be a champion. And I miss that feeling,” Ripley said.

Stratton and Ripley have a brief history as a team, pairing up on the October 7, 2024, edition of WWE RAW. In their only match as a duo, they secured a victory by disqualification over Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez.
