Stratton adds that she received comments on social media about it being Daniels’ move.
Reigning as NXT Women’s Champion is Tiffany Stratton. She won the then-vacant title in late May at the Battleground Premium Live Event.
Stratton won the championship match with her ‘Prettiest Moonsault Ever’ finisher. As she was speaking to Ryan Satin on the Out of Character podcast, Stratton shared that it was Imperium’s Ludwig Kaiser who helped her come up with her finisher.
She would go on to add that she’s aware of Christopher Daniels’ ‘Best Moonsault Ever’. Stratton did not realize how much it would be pointed out to her on social media that Daniels does the move.
He (Ludwig Kaiser) definitely did (help GUNTHER get in shape). He is a big help in my career honestly. He has helped me so much. He has helped me understand wrestling and he’s helped me with matches and where to put my skills and he honestly helped me with my finish, like coming up with a finish for me. He’s helped me a lot. He has really helped me a lot with everything.
I definitely knew that Christopher Daniels did it (Best Moonsault Ever) but I didn’t realize how much on social media, people were gonna be like, ‘Oh my God, she’s doing the Christopher Daniels Best Moonsault Ever’ so, I thought I might as well just take the Best Moonsault Ever gimmick and put Prettiest Moonsault Ever in front of it so, yeah.
This past Tuesday at NXT Gold Rush, Stratton successfully defended her title against Thea Hail.
