During a recent interview on SiriusXM’s Page Six Radio, WWE wrestler Chelsea Green discussed her vision for a spin-off series centered entirely on the women’s locker room. Speaking with hosts Danny Murphy and Evan Real, Green highlighted how much of the backstage reality remains unseen by fans, despite the regular in-ring action. She believes this unseen side could make for compelling television that captures the genuine dynamics among female wrestlers.
Behind the Scenes Dynamics Among Female WWE Wrestlers
Green emphasized the supportive nature of the women’s division but acknowledged that the pressures of weekly live shows and constant competition sometimes cause tension. She shared,
“If we had an [Unreal] that was just the girls’ locker room, which I would absolutely love. Let’s put it into the universe,”
suggesting that a reality series focused on this environment would reveal more candid interactions. She further joked,
“It would be interesting to see who actually doesn’t like me,”
reflecting the reality that not everyone always gets along perfectly.
Emotional Moments Following Title Loss
Recalling a recent high-intensity moment after losing her championship title to Giulia last Friday, Green described how emotions escalated off-camera. She said,
“She took the title off me and she near… took my weave right outta my head,”
while also admitting,
“I am sure I said some things in that moment… I’m sure my mouth was going faster than my brain, so it’d be interesting if they caught those moments.”
These raw and unfiltered reactions, she believes, would add authenticity and depth to a show dedicated to the women’s locker room experience.
Balancing Wrestling with Acting Ambitions
Beyond her wrestling career, Green opened up about her efforts to build a career in acting, facing challenges related to perceptions of wrestlers within Hollywood. She explained that using her real name can complicate auditions because the entertainment industry often associates wrestlers with certain stereotypes. Some casting directors look for performers with strong social media presence, yet a stigma toward wrestling still remains. To counteract being typecast, Green deliberately minimizes her glamorous wrestling appearance when auditioning.
Adapting Appearance for Acting Opportunities
Green described,
“I will shut it down and that’s why I took off all my nails. I don’t have fake eyelashes. I don’t have fake hair,”
explaining how she tries to present a more natural and relatable look. She added,
“I look like Joe Schmo… because I would rather that than what you see on my Instagram, which is glam times a thousand.”
While wrestlers are typically styled to appear larger than life, which Green compared to “action figures,” casting agents often seek actors who come across as more genuine and grounded.
The Potential Impact of a Women’s Locker Room Series
Green’s proposal for a WWE spin-off focused on the female wrestlers’ locker room could open the door to a more transparent look at the personal and professional challenges athletes face behind the scenes. Such a series would offer fans new insight into the human side of competitive wrestling, revealing the complex emotions and relationships that shape the women’s division. If developed, this show could deepen audience engagement with WWE’s female talent and expand storytelling beyond the ring.
