Chelsea Green has been one of the most consistently featured stars on the SmackDown brand over the last few year and it’s clear that she’s made a name for herself. While Green has her fair share of fans it seems that some WWE officials see her a certain way.
In the new season of WWE Unreal, Michael Hayes made some comments about Chelsea and indicated he doesn’t think she’s built for one of the top spots in the women’s division. During a recent appearance on Reality Checked on SiriusXM, Chelsea Green was asked about the comments and she shared her honest reaction.
“Okay, this is tea ladies because I have not done media since this came out. This really, really ruffled some feathers. So one of the head producers of WWE, his name is Michael Hayes. He works very closely with our boss, Triple H, and he basically on ‘Unreal’ said, you know, ‘Chelsea makes the most out of her time, so we don’t need to give her 30 minutes. We give her 30 seconds, and she does the same work, which is great because she’s not meant to be here for 30 minutes. She’s not meant to be the top girl. She’s meant to elevate all those girls to be in that top position, to be a main eventer.’
It’s crazy because I’m a self-aware human being, so I know my kind of place on the totem pole in this fake hierarchy that is wrestling. But to actually hear it, to actually hear that there was a ceiling put on me, it’s different. You can’t help but be pissed off and a little upset and just aggravated at the fact that you thought that there was maybe a chance that there wasn’t that ceiling, that maybe it was all in your head and that it was confirmed and it wasn’t confirmed to me, it was confirmed on national television.”
Do you think Chelsea Green has what it takes to become a main eventer in WWE? Sound off in the comments below.
