"I don't understand it" - WWE Hall of Famer left confused about Chelsea Green suddenly dropping title on SmackDown (Exclusive)
Chelsea Green shocked fans by suddenly losing her WWE Women's United States Championship to Zelina Vega last week on SmackDown. Hall of Famer Teddy Long recently commented on the situation, sharing his thoughts on the possible reasons for the title change.
Chelsea had recently aired a few complaints about her title not being defended at WrestleMania 41, which has led some to believe that the title loss might be a way to punish her. Whatever might be the reason, the championship belt changing hands did catch many by surprise.
Speaking on The Wrestling Time Machine, hosted by Mac Davis, Bill Apter expressed his astonishment at the booking and stated:
"It came out of nowhere. It was great. I love the, I was watching it, like oh that's another match with the two girls, and like whoa. We need more of that." [4:47 onwards]
When asked whether Chelsea's complaints could be the reason for the title change, WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long stated:
"She has to understand, and this is, she doesn't own that belt. You didn't really win there. This is World Wrestling Entertainment. So if somebody comes to you and asks you to do a job or get beat, you drop it. What's the problem? I don't understand it." [5:29 onwards]
