WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus recently addressed her previous remarks about fellow Canadian wrestler Chelsea Green, drawing attention to a controversial comment made last year. During a Screen Rant interview with Adam Bernard, Stratus advised Green to “stop being such a b*tch,” suggesting the attitude affected how others perceive her in the wrestling community.
“I would tell Chelsea Green to stop being such a b*tch. That might help. You know, people really dislike her, and sometimes in life, you won’t get far if you’re disliked, you know? You may become US Champion but a lot of people don’t like you and people want friends. So Chelsea Green, if you want friends, stop being a b*tch.” ?Trish Stratus, WWE Legend

At the WWE 2K26 Creator Fest, Stratus was asked about the earlier comment and admitted that Green has not changed her demeanor but seems to thrive with it. She expressed a conflicted but appreciative stance, saying that Green’s boldness on screen adds to her appeal and charisma.
Stratus elaborated that although Green continues to embrace the “b*tchiness” she once critiqued, it plays well with fans and suits her character, turning what could be negative into an art form that resonates in the wrestling world.
“Well, the thing is, she has not taken, she as in Chelsea Green, has not taken my advice, and she’s still being a b*tch, which kind of works for her though. It does. You know, I kind of like it, though. I like, I appreciate a good b*tchiness. I feel like it is an art to be b*tchy but likable, and I love that b*tch.” ?Trish Stratus, WWE Legend
