Chelsea Green is the first woman to gain a spot in the upcoming ladder match at NXT TakeOver: Tampa.
On the March 4 episode of NXT, Green scored a victory over Shotzi Blackheart to gain a spot in the match that will crown a new No. 1 Contender to the NXT Women’s Championship. With the win, the Robert Stone Brand is guaranteed some form of representation at TakeOver next month.

Green has only been wrestling on NXT television for a number of weeks, but after losing to Kayden Carter, Green is now on a win streak. NXT TakeOver: Tampa will take place on April 4.
The current NXT Women’s Champion is Rhea Ripley, but Ripley has her hands full with Charlotte Flair as the two will face off for the title at WrestleMania 36 on April 5.
