WWE NXT has confirmed its next major event, New Year’s Evil, and SmackDown’s Tiffany Stratton could have a huge role to play on the show. During WWE NXT Deadline, it was announced that New Year’s Evil will take place on January 7, 2025, in Los Angeles, California.
Ava’s announcement was interrupted by Tiffany Stratton, who received a huge reaction in her hometown of Minneapolis. Stratton also teased cashing in her Money in the Bank contract at New Year’s Evil.
NXT New Year’s Evil will see NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez put her title on the line against Giulia. The Beautiful Madness earned the title shot by winning the Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge, outlasting Zaria, Wren Sinclair, Sol Ruca, and Stephanie Vaquer. The pair met on the debut episode of WWE NXT on The CW in a title match that saw Perez retain thanks to interference by Cora Jade.

While Stratton teased going after the NXT Women’s Championship, a title she previously held in 2023, Giulia and Perez aren’t the only Superstars on her radar. On X, Stratton shared that she wanted an NXT Underground match after seeing Lola Vice defeat Jaida Parker at Deadline.
NXT New Year’s Evil will be part of a huge week for WWE, as the show will take place one day after WWE Raw debuts on Netflix. Stratton has also teased cashing in her Money in the Bank contract during that show, so the blockbuster week of WWE programming could indeed be a huge one for the Buff Barbie.
