Chelsea Green Defends WWE Women's US Title On WWE NXT

Chelsea Green has once again successfully defended the WWE Women's United States Championship.

It's day 95 of Chelsea Green's historic inaugural reign with the WWE Women's United States Championship, and she remains the longest-reigning champion in the title's history. On the March 18 episode of WWE NXT, she defeated Sol Ruca to retain the gold. She had her administration surrounding her, including both Piper Niven and Alba Fyre, and both women helped her retain the championship at different points in the match. However, they would eventually be neutralized by ZARIA, who was ringside supporting Ruca.

In the end, it wasn't the work of the Secret Hervice, but Chelsea's ingenuity to take advantage of Ruca's injured leg by tripping her before she could hit the Sol Snatcher and hitting her with the Un-Pretty-Her for the pinfall victory.

The WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida, was very much behind Chelsea Green as they recited the Pledge of Allegiance and chanted "Chelsea's President."
