WWE's Tiffany Stratton, Shady Elnahas Address Dating Rumors with Viral Photos on Instagram

WWE superstar Tiffany Stratton confirmed in an Instagram post on Sunday that she is dating NXT wrestler Shady Elnahas.

As noted by Steve Carrier of Ringside News, there was much fan speculation regarding the relationship:

"After weeks of fan chatter following kissing photos, sushi-on-biceps TikToks, and a Disney World sighting, Stratton took to Instagram and posted a full series of photos with Elnahas, confirming what many already suspected," Carrier wrote.

Stratton is a former NXT star who rose quickly in the WWE ranks after making her main roster debut on SmackDown in Feb. 2024. She won Money in the Bank in July of that year and then cashed in that opportunity in Jan. 2025 against Nia Jax. Stratton held the title for 302 days before losing it to current belt holder Jade Cargill last November at Saturday Night's Main Event.

Stratton's next big moment is set for Saturday, when she'll take part in an Elimination Chamber match, with the winner getting a world championship shot at WrestleMania in April.

Elnahas is a world-class judoka who finished fifth in the 2020 Summer Olympics in the 100 kg division. The Egyptian-Canadian is also a five-time gold medalist at the Pan American Championships, and he also won silver at the 2024 World Championships.

Last May, WWE signed three former Olympians (Elnahas, discus thrower Francois Prinsloo and fellow judoka Aaron Fara) and assigned them to the WWE Performance Center. Elnahas first wrestled in a dark match last September, and has made six house show appearances since, most recently last Friday.
