We at Real Rasslin have come to learn.
If Chelsea Green had a time machine, it would bring her to a period filled with catfights, clothing-themed battle royals, and a butterfly-shaped title belt. This period is known as the Divas Eva of WWE.
Citing the work of Kelly Kelly as the catalyst to her wrestling fandom, Chelsea Green found particular enjoyment in watching the female superstars of WWE's Divas Era (2008-2015), so much so that she wishes her career was centred on that duration of WWE history. "I belonged in the Divas era, I really did," Chelsea Green told "Insight With Chris Van Vliet. " "And I feel Maxxine Dupri also belongs with me. I loved the girliness of it. I like watching catfights. I didn't get into this to be a UFC fighter. That's just not me I like a good old b**** slap, things like that. That is my form of entertainment, that's what I love. So watching them, I love that. Then I'm not also forgetting that there was some women, you go back and you're like 'Oh damn. They could really do some crazy moves,' and we just totally swept it under the rug."
While she can't rewind the clock, Chelsea Green has been fortunate to share the ring with several figures from the Divas Era, such as Victoria, Mickie James, and most recently, Natalya. Chelsea Green also participated in the 2020 Women's Royal Rumble a match that included her original inspiration, Kelly Kelly. When asked if Kelly Kelly knew of her impact on Chelsea Green, Chelsea Green confirmed that the former Divas Champion was well aware of it at this point.
