WWE Superstar Chelsea Green made history at Saturday Night's Main Event as she became the inaugural Women's United States Champion. When the Hot Mess made her way to the back, she was greeted by former Women's World Champion Rhea Ripley.

At SNME on December 14, 2024, in Long Island, Green faced Michin for a chance to become the inaugural Women's US Title. The two superstars delivered an incredible match that had the fans on the edge of their seats. In the end, the 33-year-old sat on the top rope and executed a breathtaking flip over her opponent, connecting with Unpretty-Her to win the Women's United States Championship.

Today, WWE shared behind-the-scenes photos of Saturday Night's Main Event, photographed by Rich Wade. In a heartwarming moment, Rhea Ripley greeted and congratulated Chelsea Green on winning her first-ever singles title.

WWE veteran believes Chelsea Green is bound to turn babyface

Since her return to WWE, the Hot Mess has been portraying a 'Karen-esque' heel persona. However, wrestling veteran Vince Russo made a bold prediction about Green's character.

On Sportskeeda's Legion of RAW, Vince Russo recently declared that Chelsea Green's babyface turn is imminent. The veteran pointed to the overwhelming fan support the 33-year-old female star garnered at Saturday Night's Main Event after she captured the US Title as a clear sign that a change in character is necessary and will undoubtedly occur.

"It was Chelsea Green’s time. The fans are telling you. The fans are making it crystal clear. It was definitely Chelsea Green’s time on Saturday. Big time. Absolutely. Without a shadow of a doubt. [Chelsen Green turning babyface]. They will do that no doubt," Russo said.

Only time will tell if Rhea Ripley will cross paths with the Hot Mess for the Women's US Title. But as of now, Mami is set to face Liv Morgan for the Women's World Championship at the premiere of RAW on Netflix on January 6, 2025.
