Tiffany Stratton had tragic surrender cobra after horrible first pitch
WWE star Tiffany Stratton threw out a first pitch at a New York Mets game, and it was so painfully terrible.
At this rate, we might need to update the list of the worst first pitches ever because it's the second throw in as much as a week that's been thrown everywhere but to the player waiting at home plate. First, former NFL lineman Taylor Lewan had his throw go wide left during a Cardinals game, invoking shades of 50 Cent's horrific throw from years past. Now, Stratton has entered the chat, and she might have let Lewan off the hook for his efforts.
Stratton arrived at Citi Field, looking happy as a clam, and even showed off her Mets-themed wrestling belt. Pretty cool stuff, right? However, things went south quickly. As the WWE women's world champion stepped to the mound, she yelled her signature phrase, 'It's Tiffy Time,' before she launched the baseball.
Sadly, she hurled that poor ball so far that it went over outfielder Jared Young's head and into the dirt. Realizing the error of her ways, Stratton immediately went full surrender cobra and moments later, put her hands on her head again in utter disbelief.
Fortunately, Stratton might have taken the whole thing in stride. She made several posts to her social media accounts on Thursday celebrating her day, including a TikTok video and an Instagram post. 'Put me in, Mets,' she said.
You'll nail it next time, Tiffany Stratton. You were just a bit — not really even close at all — outside.

Robert Kraft makes promise to Patriots fans after three losing seasons
New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft made a promise to fans ahead of the 2025 NFL season. That promise comes on the heels of the team hiring Mike Vrabel as its new head coach and upgrading at various roster positions after back-to-back 4-13 regular season finishes. When appearing on The Adam Schefter Podcast, Kraft pointed to the team's active free agency and 2025 NFL draft as reasons for fans to be optimistic this year. 'We have a new coach in Mike Vrabel who is really connected with the players, who's doing great work," said Kraft. "We have a young quarterback and a lot of great veterans—free agent veterans who came in. A great draft class. We're gonna have fun this year, I promise.' There haven't been many reasons to be optimistic about the Patriots in recent years. They have not made the playoffs since the 2021 season, and they have endured losing records in three consecutive years. To take things a step further, they haven't even won a playoff game since their Super Bowl LIII victory over the Los Angeles Rams. There is a sense of change with the arrival of Vrabel and a more experienced coaching staff. Quarterback Drake Maye looks like he could be a future standout, and the team has done a much better job of surrounding him with the necessary talent to be successful. Perhaps this will be the year when the Patriots finally take flight. Follow Patriots Wire on Twitter and Facebook.

Sauce Gardner opens up on how LeBron James played role in him meeting Ice Spice
LeBron James, even if unintentionally, helped play the role of matchmaker for Sauce Gardner's rumored relationship with rapper Ice Spice, the Jets cornerback told TMZ. Gardner appeared on an April 2024 episode of 'The Shop' — a podcast featuring James — alongside rapper Travis Scott, former NFL wideout Chad Ochocinco and star Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez, and Gardner told the outlet he believes that's when the couple met in person for the first time. They seemingly became Instagram official just over one year later in a post shared by Ice Spice with her and Gardner posing in front of a bathroom mirror. Advertisement 3 Ice Spice and Sauce Gardner are pictured at the Knicks' game May 16. AP While Gardner told TMZ that he wasn't 'trying to speak too much on it' when approached in Los Angeles, he did acknowledge that he and the rapper are 'cool' — and proceeded to reveal a bit about their relationship. 'We just be having a good time,' Gardner told the outlet. 'Two young individuals, you know. She from New York. I play in New York. She talented, real talented, when it come to what she do. Same thing for me. Two people that get hated on that's really good at what we do, so we got a lot in common. We cool.' Advertisement 3 LeBron James is pictured at Fanatics Fest on June 21. Getty Images Before Ice Spice's post, the duo had been spotted out in public on different occasions, and Gardner appeared to tease the relationship earlier in April by sharing a photo on Instagram that showed them standing next to a car in New York City. When they attended a Knicks playoff game at the Garden in May, they received a loud ovation from fans in attendance as they watched the Knicks close out their second-round series against the Celtics. Gardner, 24, will enter the 2025 campaign off a rough season and is entering the last year of his rookie deal, but he still attended the Jets' mandatory minicamp instead of holding out, getting fined and attempting to make a contract statement.

Bill Kostroun/New York Post 'I just wanted to show my teammates and the coaches how much I'm bought into this,' Gardner told reporters on June 12. 'I want to win. I want to be a part of changing the organization.' He earned consecutive First-Team All-Pro appearances in his first two NFL seasons — as well as winning Defensive Rookie of the Year and securing a pair of Pro Bowl spots — but failed to even make the Pro Bowl last year.

WWE Night Of Champions 2025 Results As Jade Cargill Wins Queen Of The Ring

More Images) Jade Cargill is WWE's newest Queen of the Ring after the biggest win of her career at Night of Champions 2025. 'The Storm' defeated Asuka in the finals of the 2025 Queen of the Ring tournament to inch one step closer to her first singles championship in WWE. In the most important match of her young WWE career, Cargill planted 'The Empress of Tomorrow' with a massive Jaded finisher out of nowhere to punch her ticket to SummerSlam. The two stars battled in a match largely dominated by Asuka, but ultimately, Cargill stood tall after hitting her finisher to cap off a mediocre QOTR finals match. With the victory, Cargill will now go on to face the WWE Women's Champion, currently Tiffany Stratton, at WWE's first-ever two-night SummerSlam in August. WWE Night Of Champions 2025 Results for Jade Cargill vs. Asuka Cargill pinned Asuka at WWE Night of Champions despite having a rough go-round getting out of the gate. Among the key highlights of the WWE Queen of the Ring finals were: The 2025 WWE Queen of the Ring tournament began with four Fatal 4-way matches, won by Alexa Bliss, Asuka, Cargill and Roxanne Perez, respectively. In the pair of semifinals matches, Asuka defeated Bliss while Cargill toppled Perez to set up the highly anticipated finals between Asuka and Cargill. With Asuka just returning from an extended layoff and having a lengthy history with Raw's Women's World Champion Iyo Sky, Asuka and Cargill entered the QOTR finals in a 'pick 'em' battle that seemingly could have gone either way. But Cargill has been protected throughout her run on WWE's main roster, and WWE seems to have huge creative plans for her in the months ahead. WWE SummerSlam 2025 Preview After Jade Cargill Wins Queen of the Ring Tournament The Wrestling Observer's Dave Meltzer recently shed some light on why he believed Cargill would win the Queen of the Ring finals at WWE Night of Champions 2025. On a recent episode of Wrestling Observer Radio (h/t Wrestling Inc), Meltzer said, ""Jade was supposed to be, if she hadn't gotten hurt, Jade was supposed to be champion by WrestleMania. And defending it at WrestleMania. Not [win it] at WrestleMania, but before WrestleMania." While Cargill's injury derailed those championship plans temporarily, her career appears to be back on track. Cargill's win over Asuka at WWE Night of Champions, albeit in a somewhat sloppy performance, was her biggest singles victory to date, and with that win, she's just weeks away from getting a shot at SmackDown's WWE Women's Championship. Why is that so intriguing? Well, SmackDown's Naomi, Cargill's most hated rival, is currently holding the Money in the Bank briefcase, making her a virtual shoo-in to be the world champion in the near future. Cargill's win over Asuka only makes it clearer where WWE should take Naomi's storyline. The best bet here is that Cargill beats Stratton at SummerSlam only for Naomi to instantly cash in on Cargill and take the WWE Women's title from her. Alternatively, Naomi could conceivably cash in during the match, prevent Cargill from beating Stratton and then pin Stratton herself. Regardless of the specifics, Cargill's massive victory in the Queen of the Ring finals at WWE Night of Champions almost certainly will reignite her feud with Naomi at SummerSlam.
