Chelsea Green Earns Praise From WWE Legend

Chelsea Green earned every moment of her Women’s United States Title win.

At Saturday Night’s Main Event, Chelsea Green made history. After a month-long tournament, the star got the better of Michin to become the first-ever Women’s United States Champion.

The victory was popular among fans and fellow wrestlers alike, with stars from companies across the world sending their congratulations.

For many, the win was validation of Green’s determined approach and desire to make anything she’s presented with work. The star initially signed with WWE in 2018 before being released three years later. After turning her release into a positive, Green returned to the company in January 2023.

WWE Stars Could Learn From Chelsea Green

During the latest episode of his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T heaped praise on Green for the victory, commenting that simply, she deserves it.

Booker explained that her success is down to working as hard as possible night in and night out until a big opportunity arises. He added that others would benefit greatly if they followed that example.

“You just hit it on the head. She deserves it. It goes back to that saying, do the job, and do the job to the best of your ability until something else comes along. That’s what Chelsea’s been doing.

She’s just been going out, doing the job every single night, to the best of her ability, win or lose. It hasn’t been about that. It’s been about her going out and performing at the highest level she possibly could every single night.

If everybody adopted that same sentiment, they would put themselves in a better place, they would put themselves in a better position to win, more importantly than anything.

That’s what this business is about. Everybody can’t be on top at the same time. But if you’re doing your job, you’re putting yourself in a position to perhaps one day be on top. That’s the only thing you can really ask for.”

During the same episode, Booker T came to the defence of Tessa Blanchard following the controversial star’s return to TNA. Booker claimed that Blanchard deserves to have another chance to relaunch her career, telling fans to “get off it” and move on.
