#4 Chelsea Green - Back to being a hot mess post-WWE?

Chelsea Green's WWE run didn't work out as hoped

Chelsea Green had a frustrating run in WWE ever since she signed in 2018. While she got TV time in NXT, her WWE main roster run was an entirely different story.

Her original debut was reportedly going to be on RAW. But after Paul Heyman was fired from his position as the Executive Director of the red brand, the call-up was delayed.

It took months before she made her eventual debut on SmackDown in a Fatal Four-Way match, where she broke her wrist. It was around this time that she signed a contract extension with WWE, but only half a year later, she was released.

It was a bizarre one, especially since she is young and seemed to have a lot of promise. But that doesn't seem to be bothering Chelsea Green too much. Hinting at returning as The Hot Mess to IMPACT Wrestling, Green will thrive wherever she goes post-WWE.

She has a good level of star power about her that WWE simply didn't utilize or recognize.
