The WWE Universe is buzzing with anticipation as WWE RAW prepares to air live from the SAP Center in San Jose, California. Following the recent Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event in Australia, fans are eager to see the fallout and what lies ahead on the road to WrestleMania XL.
One of the most talked-about topics leading up to tonight’s episode is the potential return of the Divas Championship. WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H has hinted at surprises, and the revival of this iconic title could be one of them.
Last week, the WWE Universe witnessed the triumphant return of Raquel Rodriguez, who had been absent from action for three months. Her victory in the Last Chance Battle Royal earned her the final spot in the Women’s Elimination Chamber match. Rodriguez’s victory was hard-fought, with notable eliminations of Shayna Baszler and Zoey Stark. However, her victory was nearly derailed by Chelsea Green, who attempted to blindside her. Despite Green’s efforts, Rodriguez remained vigilant and secured the win.
Green, however, was not satisfied with the outcome, calling it the “Anaheim Screwjob” because the 32 year old thinks that Rodriguez’s entry into the match was unannounced. She has since stated her intention to demand a WrestleMania spot on WWE RAW, with the goal of winning the Divas Championship. The title, which was retired eight years ago at WrestleMania 32, could make a comeback under Triple H’s leadership.
While the return of the Divas Championship is not confirmed, its revival could bring a new level of excitement to the Women’s division. It could also pave the way for mid-card feuds and elevate the division’s status on WWE RAW and SmackDown.
Chelsea Green’s journey back to WWE RAW has been a rollercoaster ride. She was released by WWE in April 2021 due to pandemic-related budget cuts but persevered and sought Triple H’s intervention. Her return in the 2023 Women’s Royal Rumble Match marked the beginning of a new chapter for her.
Reflecting on her journey, Green shared her determination to prove herself to WWE: “I just wanted stability and to be back. And I knew that if they gave me the opportunity that I felt I deserved in the first run, I could prove [it] to them.” Her passion and resilience have endeared her to fans, making her quest for WrestleMania glory all the more captivating.
Green’s partnership with Sonya Deville led to a Women’s Tag Team Championship win last summer, but Deville’s injury sidelined her, leading to a new partnership with Piper Niven. Despite their efforts, the duo lost the titles to Kayden Carter and Katana Chance last December.
As tonight’s WWE RAW unfolds, the stage is set for an exciting night of action. The potential return of the Divas Championship and the competition for WrestleMania spots promise to make it an unforgettable evening for wrestling fans worldwide.
