WWE's newest sensation Tiffany Stratton had another impressive showing on SmackDown this week. One of the star's signature moves was praised by industry veteran Dutch Mantell.

The match between Stratton and Naomi ended in a no-contest as Nia Jax emerged and attacked Bayley and Naomi. Stratton used this to her advantage as she lined up the two babyfaces and hit them with the Prettiest Moonsault Ever, sending out a message that she deserves to be in the title picture.

On this week's episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Smack Talk, Mantell claimed that he liked the finish of the match. He felt it was a great way to make Nia Jax look strong as the newest addition to SmackDown.

"It was a DQ but they covered that DQ up. And then when she lined them both up, they made Nia Jax look like a killer which I think, that's what she's supposed to look like anyway. There's nothing she can't do to look like a killer. She's not the finest wrestler."

Mantell was also impressed by how Tiffany took advantage of the situation and laid out Naomi and Bayley for the second week in a row.

"Then Tiffany Stratton, she hit that backflip, beautiful. I'm thinking, 'Wait a minute, she's laying them close together so that makes her knees go back out farther.' And she did. She's done that before. But she did it, nobody got hurt. I though that was a good spot." [From 58:00 onwards]

After the encounter, SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis decided that the WWE Women's Championship match at Backlash would be a Triple Threat featuring Bayley, Naomi, and Tiffany Stratton.

It will be interesting to see if The Role Model can hold on to the title if the odds are stacked against her.
