Report: Chelsea Green signs new multi-year WWE contract
WWE has inked former Women’s United States Champion Chelsea Green to a contract extension.
Fightful reported today that Green recently signed a new contract with WWE. It’s a multi-year deal, but the exact length of the contract has not been disclosed.
Green became WWE’s first-ever Women’s United States Champion in December 2024 and held the title for more than four months before dropping it to Zelina Vega on the April 25 episode of SmackDown. She adopted a presidential character as champion with Piper Niven and Alba Fyre by her side as “Secret Hervice” agents.
Though she plays a delusional heel on television, fan support has helped propel Green to WWE success. She told Insight with Chris Van Vliet last month that she is “so not” like her TV character in real life. The off-screen version of Green is more humble because of obstacles she’s had to overcome like being fired by WWE in 2021.
“But I have way more humility in my real life because I’ve not been champion and I’ve been trying to get to WWE for forever. And I’ve been fired a million times. And I didn’t make it off Tough Enough,” Green said. “Like there’s so many things that go into my story as the real human Chelsea Green that makes me believe I don’t deserve this title or I won’t be winning it. But then Chelsea the wrestler is like, of course I’m winning it. I’m Chelsea.”
TNA and Lucha Underground are among the other promotions Green has worked for in her career. She was a one-time Knockouts Champion in TNA.
