WWE Star Upset About Coveted Title Not Being On SummerSlam Card
A former champion in WWE is upset about a specific title not being a part of the SummerSlam lineup.
There are 12 matches scheduled for WWE SummerSlam on August 2nd and 3rd at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Nine of those matches will be championship matches. All six matches taking place on SummerSlam Sunday will be championship matches.
One of the titles that won’t be on the line at SummerSlam is the Women’s US Title. Chelsea Green was the first Women’s US Champion after winning it on Saturday Night’s Main Event in December 2024.
Green held the Women’s US Title for 131 days before losing it to Zelina Vega. Giulia ended Vega’s title reign at 62 days.
On WWE SmackDown in Newark, Giulia beat Vega to retain the Women’s US Title in a great match.
Chelsea Green Is Upset That The Women’s US Title Is Not A Part Of WWE SummerSlam
While speaking to The Ringer Wrestling Show, Chelsea Green expressed her disappointment about the Women’s US Title not being featured at SummerSlam.
“It definitely makes me upset. I feel like I really put in work with that title. When I first got that title, I did not stop working. I won it before Christmas, I worked through Christmas and literally every single day until I dropped the title. So, it does make me upset. I feel like I laid the groundwork for this title to mean something and unfortunately we’ve taken a step back from that but that’s not the girls fault.
That’s just a fact that there’s so much good wrestling right now that we don’t even know how to fit in on TV. Am I making excuses, yes. Because you can always fit something on TV.
You saw me lose, even though I had that title for like four months straight. I didn’t even win a match and I was only on TV maybe two to three minutes every week, but it was still there and being shown.
I do make sure that every time Giulia shows up at TV, I hype her up. She should still feel amazing for holding that title, whether it’s being used on TV and being defended or not. I do feel like we could do more with it. She’s such an amazing wrestler, she’s insane. She’s so good. I do feel like there’s something there, I feel like she should feud with Zelina but like really feud, like really give us something to tune into.
I would be okay feuding with her but I’ve said this before, let me not continue to put my hands where it doesn’t belong. We’re two champions removed from me, let her have her moment because I already know people keep talking about my reign with the title because we haven’t really seen much since. Poor Zelina had to feud with me until the end of time, until she lost the title. I just think that Giulia has the platform to possibly have girls come up from NXT or Raw or bring girls in that haven’t been working to feud with her. I just hope we can do that.”
The WWE Women’s US Title was also not a part of the women-only Evolution PLE because Giulia was in a battle royal, but not a featured match on the show.
