Chelsea Green became the Interim WWE Women's Champion on Sunday night, securing the title in a grueling ladder match at SummerSlam held at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. Green outlasted competitors including Lash Legend, Jade Cargill, Charlotte Flair, and Tiffany Stratton. The victory adds a significant championship to Green's extensive professional wrestling resume.
The interim title was necessitated by the injury of the official women's champion, Rhea Ripley. Green's win establishes her as the top contender on the SmackDown roster, with potential future matchups against Ripley upon her return, as well as other formidable challengers like Cargill, Legend, and Flair.
Green's career has seen her hold multiple championships across various wrestling promotions, including the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship and the TNA Knockouts Championship. The addition of the Interim WWE Women's Championship marks a significant milestone in her pursuit of the top women's title in WWE.
Other notable competitors in the match included Michin and B-Fab, who also participated in the bout. The event featured several high-profile matches and title defenses, drawing a large crowd to the stadium in Minneapolis.
