Chelsea Green released by WWE
History repeats itself a year later as WWE announces several releases today, including Chelsea Green. The WWE Universe has been rocked as the company has released several of its superstars.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful reports that John Laurinaitis is making the phone calls this afternoon, citing budget cuts as the reason for these releases taking place.
Chelsea Green's last appearance on the WWE main roster came on Friday Night SmackDown in a fatal four-way match back in March 2020. Unfortunately, she suffered a broken wrist and hasn't been used since despite being cleared recently.
