Chelsea Green has opened up about her Women’s title victory.
The interim Women’s champion recently spoke to Chris Van Vliet for a new interview. She talked about things such as leaving Twitter for good, dedicating her win to Michael Hayes, embracing her role in WWE Unreal, and more.
The Canadian star also opened up about the ending moments of the SummerSlam 2026 ladder match. Chelsea Green mentioned that her legs were cramping and her hamstrings were on fire as she was hanging upside down from the ladder:
Oh my God! So I was laying upside down. First of all, if you watch really close, I’m very ever so slightly trying to shift my weight from toe to toe because my toes are the only thing that’s keeping me there. My legs are cramping.
The backs of my hamstrings are on fire because they’re pressed up against the metal, and I’m like, okay, just release this toe and like hold on with this one. I can’t move because if I move, it gives it all away. You know I’m alive. I have to stay dead until that very moment, and then see what happens.
It Gave Me Chills: Chelsea Green
The SummerSlam ladder match saw Chelsea Green competing against Charlotte Flair, Jade Cargill, Lash Legend, and Tiffany Stratton to become the interim champion after Rhea Ripley’s injury.
B-Fab and Michin ran out to help Cargill win the bout towards the end of the match and their attack trapped Chelsea on the ladder upside down. Charlotte Flair then took out both B-Fab and Michin before Flair and Cargill knocked each other off the ladder. This is when Chelsea recovered and retrieved the belt.
Speaking about the closing moments of the bout, the former Knockouts Champion mentioned that it exceeded any dream scenario she could have come up with herself:
Everything was strategic in that moment where I was, and just making sure that I stayed so still. I’m laying there, and I’m looking up at the Tron, and I see that Jade and Charlotte take the final bump, and I’m like okay; this is it. They’ll either know, or I’ll sit up and they’ll know.
But I was still upside down, and I felt a rumble, and the minute that I started turning my head and looking around, it was like I felt everyone stand up, and it gave me chills. If I could dream of a scenario where I was winning the greatest title that a woman could win in wrestling, that was better than that moment. I could not have dreamt of that moment.
Apart from this, Chelsea discussed the conversation she had backstage immediately after her orbital bone injury, pitching hair vs hair match in WWE and more.
