Chelsea Green recently shared her reaction to a surprising WWE Royal Rumble win proposal. Although Charlotte Flair ultimately claimed victory in the 2025 WWE Women’s Royal Rumble, WWE Vice President of Creative Writing Jonathan Baeckstrom had suggested an unusual win scenario for Green, who was the Women’s United States Champion at the time. This pitch involved Green winning by default after a dramatic double elimination with another competitor.
Details of the Proposed Royal Rumble Finish
On the WWE Unreal show, Baeckstrom outlined a plan where the 29th entrant and a contestant who had already entered would knock each other out, leaving the 30th entrant—Chelsea Green—as the automatic winner. Green responded with surprise when she learned about this idea.
“I think that could have been a hilarious moment, a moment that our audience would have never forgotten, a moment that would have gone down in history.”

Green’s Perspective on Wrestling’s Unpredictability
Green emphasized the unpredictable nature of professional wrestling and expressed optimism about future opportunities. She highlighted the creative possibilities that lie ahead, both for herself and for new talents rising from NXT.
“Is that anything can happen, and by the time we hit 2026, we might have 10 more incredible ideas or ways for me to win a Royal Rumble, or for a newcomer, for someone in NXT to come up and surprise the fans.”
