Tiffany Stratton's match against Jade Cargill saw a controversial spot that may have seen her injured

Tiffany Stratton was wrestling Jade Cargill on WWE SmackDown last week. There, she went for her Moonsault to the outside, however, where stars are usually trying to protect their opponents by catching them so they do not land badly, Cargill was nowhere to be seen.

She landed on her legs, falling badly, with her taking the complete fall. After that moment, she was seen limping, and veterans commented on it. On BroDown on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge, Vince Russo talked about how Stratton was likely hurt in that fall, and that was something that should not have been allowed to happen.

"Tiffany took that one bump to the outside when her feet kind of went underneath her. I really thought she hurt herself. I was really concerned that she had gotten her Man, she could have blew out, you know, both her ankles, her knees on that. That was dangerous," Russo said.

While it's not confirmed if that is the reason for her absence on NXT, further details are awaited on the condition of the star. Should she be unable to compete soon, the title may be taken off her.
