NXT Star Lashes Out At Fans For Chanting Fiancé’s Name

Dec 13, 2019

Sometimes it’s hard for wrestlers to separate their personal lives from their in-ring careers, but NXT star Chelsea Green is clearly sick of fans chanting for her fiancé Zack Ryder during her matches.

The former Impact Knockouts Champion recently took to Twitter to express some frustration when it comes to fans devaluing the things she’s achieved on her own.

“Pricks like you are the reason women with successful partners have to work 10x harder to prove themselves. Google me. I didn’t see Zack Ryder winning the impact title for me. I didn’t see Zack Ryder wrestling Penta for me. Didn’t see him breaking bones instead of me.
BOY BYE”

She went on to say that she doesn’t think people understand how disrespectful it is when they chant Zack’s name, and she encouraged fans to stop, but added that she’s proud of Zack Ryder.

“I don’t think people understand how disrespectful it is to undermine my hard work. Tweeting about my partner, calling out his name or chant while I’m wrestling, etc… is doing just that. I’ve said this before but clearly it needs to be said again – stop!”

“I love my man. I’m proud of him and proud to be with him, but our careers are separate. I’ve built my name by myself with my own blood, sweat and tears. Any success I achieve will be because of ME.”
