Former WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton made a triumphant return to the WWE in the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble Match last month in Riyadh. Despite making it to the final two competitors, she was ultimately eliminated by Liv Morgan, who emerged victorious this year.
However, Tiffany “The Buff Barbie” Stratton is not giving up on her WrestleMania dream. On the latest episode of Friday Night SmackDown, she secured a spot in the Women’s Elimination Chamber Match. Alongside her in-ring success, Stratton is also flourishing in her personal life.
A video of Tiffany Stratton’s rumored real-life boyfriend, Shady Elnahas, recently went viral. Elnahas got a tattoo of The Buff Barbie’s eye on his forearm, and the couple proudly displayed it in a social media video.
In a recent interview on the Hall of Fame podcast, Tiffany Stratton revealed her dream WrestleMania match. She expressed her desire to face the legendary Nikki Bella in a singles match at WrestleMania 42. The SmackDown Superstar sees it as a generational clash that could be iconic and memorable.
As of now, Tiffany Stratton has not been booked for a match at WrestleMania 42. However, she will be looking to secure a win at Elimination Chamber 2026 in Chicago to punch her ticket to the grandest stage of them all. It will be interesting to see what plans Triple H and the WWE creative team have in store for The Buff Barbie in the coming months.
