In a shocking turn of events, WWE Superstars Chelsea Green and Piper Niven were stopped by security from entering Friday Night SmackDown this week. The two women, who are new to the SmackDown roster following the 2024 WWE Draft, refused to back down and protested their way into the event.
On the latest edition of SmackDown, Niven faced off against Jade Cargill in the first-round match of the 2024 Queen of the Ring tournament. Despite a valiant effort, Niven was defeated by Cargill, who put on an impressive display of wrestling skills. However, things took a dramatic turn when Green attempted to interfere by getting on the ring apron, only to be taken out by Cargill as well.
But before the bell even rang, Green and Niven faced an unexpected hurdle. As they arrived at the arena, security stopped them from entering, claiming they didn’t recognize them as part of the SmackDown roster. Undeterred, the two Superstars stood their ground, insisting that their faces were credentials enough. Video footage of the exchange has since surfaced, showcasing the duo’s determination to make their mark on the blue brand.
Despite their initial setback, Green and Niven are clearly eyeing bigger prizes. In a backstage interview, the pair interrupted Bayley as she discussed the Queen of the Ring tournament, making it clear that they have their sights set on the Women’s Championship. Green, who recently fell short in her bid for the NXT Women’s Championship, seems particularly driven to make up for lost ground.
As the coming weeks unfold, it will be fascinating to see how Green and Niven navigate the SmackDown terrain. Will they continue to ruffle feathers and challenge the status quo, or will they find themselves at the mercy of the WWE’s top brass? One thing is certain: these two women are not to be underestimated, and they will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
