Chelsea Green is done with the idea that you have to backstab your way to the top in WWE. In a refreshingly honest conversation, Green opened up about how she sees locker room dynamics, competition, and fan reactions—and she’s not afraid to challenge the current culture, both behind the curtain and online.
When asked about balancing friendship and competition in a business with limited airtime during an interview with SHAK Wrestling, Green didn’t hesitate to admit that not everyone gets it.
“Well, I think there are some people that can’t do that. There are some people that they think that to get to the top you have to step on people,” she explained, referencing a conversation she had just had with Bianca Belair.
“In fact, the people at the top should be reaching down and holding your hand and pulling you up there and elevating you. That’s the whole point of being a top girl… You didn’t get there because you stepped on all of the little people to get to the top. We got you to the top. We were all pulling you up one by one and elevating you.”
For Green, the real key to success in WWE isn’t politics—it’s making yourself so valuable that creative has to use you.
“You have to create a reason for creative to write you that storyline, to put you in a match, to add you to a pre-tape,” she said. “That’s what I knew coming back—I wanted to make sure I was undeniable. I’m not saying I’m the best wrestler, but I am saying I’m going to make sure that when you give me something, I’m always going to do my best to have people talk about it.”
She then addressed one of the loudest issues she sees from fans today: an obsession with wins and losses that doesn’t match how wrestling really works.
“There really is a spot for everyone. We can make room for everyone at the top,” she said. “There’s this weird culture surrounding wins and losses right now… Fans are really hyperfocused on like, if you lose, you’re a jobber. If you lose, you’re being buried. And if you win, you’re X, Y, and Z. That’s not true.”
To drive it home, she used a sports analogy fans couldn’t ignore.
“Just because LeBron’s team, you know, sometimes loses, it does not make him a big loser. He’s still the best.”
Chelsea Green continues to prove she’s more than just a character on TV—she’s someone who understands how to survive and thrive in the WWE machine without playing dirty. And she’s not afraid to tell fans when their assumptions are flat-out wrong.
