Summary

– Chelsea Green says Tiffany Stratton’s betrayal left her feeling she had lost a friend

– Stratton cashed in Money in the Bank minutes after Green won the WWE Women’s Championship

– Green plans to go home and rebuild her confidence

Chelsea Green says Tiffany Stratton’s Money in the Bank cash-in at Crown Jewel hurt beyond the loss of the WWE Women’s Championship. Speaking at the event’s post-show, Green said the betrayal also cost her a friend.

Green had spent years hoping for the chance to prove she belonged at the top of WWE. After defeating Liv Morgan, she thought she had finally reached the moment she had long worked toward.

“I just spent 10 minutes on SmackDown telling the world that this was going to be the moment at Crown Jewel that was gonna show everyone I belonged here. And instead, I didn’t just lose my championship — I lost a friend.”

Stratton initially appeared to come to Green’s aid after Morgan attacked her. Green even helped Stratton fend off Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez, believing her friend had her back.

Stratton then revealed she was cashing in her Money in the Bank contract. She hit the exhausted Green with the Prettiest Moonsault Ever and won the WWE Women’s Championship.

Green said she needs time away to recover from the shock and regain her confidence.

“So, I’m gonna go home and regroup. And I’m gonna do whatever I need to do to build my confidence back up.”

Green still holds the Women’s Crown Jewel Championship, but she left Riyadh shaken by the betrayal. The wrestler who had just celebrated the moment she spent years chasing now has to reckon with losing both her title and a trusted friend.
