During a recent NASCAR press conference event at the Pennzoil 400, WWE Women's United States Champion Chelsea Green commented on the popularity of the Women's United States Championship because of her.
You can check out some highlights from the press conference below:
On her title reign: "So, I just hit 90 days as the first-ever, longest-reigning United States Women's Champion. I'm very proud of that; I'm mostly proud because I think that this belt just goes to show how amazing women in sport are doing. We saw a huge resurgence of women in sport in 2024. We saw the WNBA pop off, right? Like, they are filling up stadiums. We've seen rugby, women's rugby; I didn't even really know that existed. We've seen women in soccer take off with all the other things that they're doing in their career."
On the rise in popularity for women's sports: "I just feel like this is another aspect of us saying, 'We can fill up stadiums. Us as women, we can fill up stadiums; we can have pay-per-views, and this proves it: right here, we just shattered another glass ceiling.' So, that's why it's really special to me personally."
During a recent appearance on the “Pro Wrestling Experience” podcast, Chelsea Green expressed her belief that now is a great time for women's sports.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On her thoughts on women's sports: "Gosh, as a female in sports right now, we're at a really, really interesting, time we are seeing the WNBA take off. We are seeing the soccer team just thrive. All the national teams thriving. We are watching women main event WrestleMania. We see a new Intercontinental and United States title being revealed."
On taking her title to Las Vegas: "Like, it's just an unbelievable time for women. So I hope that I can do everybody justice, do all the females in this world justice by taking this title to Las Vegas, showing up on the 19th and 20th of April and just proving the world right. This is what we deserved, and this is why. I'm really excited for that."
On Samantha Irvin’s ring introduction of her: "All the time and I love it. It never gets old. I thank Samantha for everything that she did for my entrance because it is amazing. Seriously, like, whether you're really good at doing it or really terrible, it gives me a feeling, and I love it. That's the whole point of wrestling, right? Like, the point is to feel something. Feel anything, whether it's good or bad. Just feel something, and that's what we get."
