WWE star opens up about frustration after comments aired on Netflix
Summary
– Chelsea Green responds to Michael Hayes’ comments from WWE Unreal
– Green admits the remarks left her angry and disappointed
– She says hearing a perceived ceiling publicly confirmed was difficult
Chelsea Green has addressed recent comments from WWE producer Michael Hayes, which aired during season two of WWE Unreal on Netflix.
Throughout the series, Hayes described Green as highly entertaining but not suited for the same roles as performers such as Charlotte Flair or Tiffany Stratton. He suggested that her value lies in elevating others rather than being positioned as a long-term main-event talent.
Green spoke candidly about those remarks during an episode of Reality Checked on SiriusXM. She explained that she had not participated in media appearances since the episode aired and admitted the comments struck a nerve.
Green said she considers herself self-aware and understands how wrestling hierarchies often work. However, she noted that hearing a defined ceiling placed on her role was far more difficult than assuming one might exist privately.
She explained that the frustration stemmed from having any lingering doubt removed, especially given that the comments were being aired publicly. According to Green, the confirmation was not delivered behind closed doors but instead on national television, which amplified the emotional impact.
Despite the disappointment, Green remains active in high-profile roles. She is currently one-half of the AAA World Mixed Tag Team Champions alongside NXT North American Champion Ethan Page.
