Chelsea Green: They Told Me Every Week 'Stop Being So Extra,' I Still Do It

Chelsea Green will always do the most.

Since returning to WWE at the Royal Rumble, Chelsea Green has had consistent television time and found a character that connects as the "Karen." Green was worked with Adam Pearce in backstage segments and won the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles with Sonya Deville.

Speaking on WWE After The Bell, Green was asked how she's found herself since returning to WWE.

"I just, so badly, wanted them to let me be me. Let me be my authentic self in the form of coming up with characters, coming up with my own promos and punchlines. I didn't get that freedom my first run. Maybe that's because when they gave me an inch, I didn't take the mile. This time, it was all that's raw. What's the worst that can happen? I'm released? I've had that happen, that already happened. I'm not afraid anymore. I'm not afraid to try something ridiculous because the worst they can do is say, 'stop being so extra, let's reel it in,' which they told me week after week, and I still do it. I still am the most. I didn't do that the first time. Now, I'm realizing that I'm at a point in my career where they can tell me that I was wrong after I did it," she said.

Green still holds the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships despite Deville being sidelined for the foreseeable future with an ACL injury.
