For decades, Super Bowl winners have celebrated their wins by declaring that “I’m Going to Disneyland!” to mark the occasion. At WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, Chelsea Green became the first WWE Women’s U.S Champion, and she too celebrated in the Magic Kingdom.
True to her word, Green celebrated her win in Disneyland alongside her husband Matt Cardona. Days ahead of his ROH World Title showdown at Final Battle, the Indy-God staked his claim to his wife’s championship reign.
Green herself added a unique accolade to her reign, pointing out (via default) that she is the longest-reigning WWE Women’s United States Champion in the history of wrestling.
Green became the first-ever champion by besting Michin in the finals of a tournament that has been going on for weeks. The self-professed Hot Mess defeated Blair Davenport and Bianca Belair in her first-round triple-threat match before defeating Bayley in the semi-finals. The win marks Green’s first title in WWE since 2022 and her first singles title ever with the promotion.
Fans can expect quite the celebration from Green this Friday when she returns to SmackDown as the brand-new champion. The December 20, show will air from the XL Center in Hartford, CT, with much of the show already being taped to give talent time off for the holidays.
Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Chelsea Green as the new Women’s U.S. Champion is making sure everyone knows of her historic victory.
