Chelsea Green Breaks Silence On WWE SmackDown Botch

Chelsea Green addresses the WWE SmackDown botch.

The February 20 edition of Friday Night SmackDown from Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida, featured Alba Fyre facing Tiffany Stratton in a singles match. Alba Fyre was accompanied to the ring by her faction mate Chelsea Green, who appeared in a wheelchair.

During their entrance, WWE SmackDown ring announcer Mark Nash made a noticeable botch by introducing Chelsea Green as one-half of the AAA World Mixed Tag Team Champions. In reality, Green lost the title on the February 7, 2026, edition of AAA on Fox.

Green had suffered a broken ankle during an Elimination Chamber qualifying match on the February 6 episode of SmackDown, forcing La Hiedra to replace her in the championship bout. La Hiedra teamed with Ethan Page but lost the AAA World Mixed Tag Team Championship to Lola Vice and Mr. Iguana.

Since then, Green has claimed she never technically lost the title, as she did not compete in the match.

A fan later pointed out Nash’s mistake on Twitter, which caught Green’s attention. She responded by implying the introduction was correct because, in her view, she never actually lost the championship.

The Alba Fyre vs Tiffany Stratton match on WWE SmackDown saw Tiffany emerge victorious from the bout. Chelsea Green tried to interfere in the match to tip the scales in Alba’s favor, but she couldn’t be of much help.
