Chelsea Green has been a prominent figure on WWE RAW for quite some time now. According to former WWE head writer Vince Russo, the creative team might want to consider turning Green and her tag team partner Piper Niven into fan favorites.
With the 2024 WWE Draft just around the corner, scheduled for April 26 on SmackDown and April 29 on RAW, Green and Niven are expected to be drafted as a tag team on the latter night.
In the recent episode of Wrestling’s Writing With Russo, Russo discussed potential picks for the draft.
He expressed his enthusiasm for Green and Niven, suggesting that they could be huge successes as babyfaces:
“I am going with, because I always think about if I was working with them, and I think it would be an absolute blast working with them, I think it would be a lot of fun working with them, and I think I would get them over as babyfaces absolutely huge, and I’m talking about Piper Niven and Chelsea Green. [They are] just being wasted.”
Russo believes that turning them into fan favorites could boost them to the next level:
“First of all, Chelsea Green is the most entertaining thing on either show. I think that goes without saying, and you can see that that is there with Piper Niven. You can see it’s there. There’s just nobody giving them the proper attention, bro. I would get these two women over as huge babyfaces and they would be so entertaining.”
Regarding Green’s performance, Russo praised her ability to maximize her limited television time, stating:
“Al Snow will always tell you this, bro. You’re given that TV time, whether it’s a minute, whether it’s 10 minutes. What are you doing with that time? I don’t think anybody utilizes that time more than Chelsea Green. Every second in the ring she is doing character work and getting over, bro. That’s who I want on my roster.”
Russo also shared his thoughts on Gunther’s status in WWE following his loss at WrestleMania XL.
