Below are a couple of top WWE & AEW news stories of the day, involving Chelsea Green and Eric Bischoff.
• As seen on this week’s episode of NXT Spring Breakin’ – Night 2, General Manager Ava (The Rock’s daughter) brought in new SmackDown star Chelsea Green.
Green will face Roxanne Perez for the NXT Women’s Championship on next week’s show.
Chelsea used to be managed by Robert Stone during her NXT run. Stone is no longer managing anyone since Von Wagner’s release, so WWE wants to reunite Chelsea & Robert.
Here’s what Fightful Select reported:
“Chelsea Green has been a talent requested in NXT for quite some time. There have been pitches since Von Wagner’s release to pair Green back up with Stone on the main roster.”

Former WCW President Eric Bischoff mocked this chair shot by tweeting the following:
“Yikes. Nothing like killing a ‘branding statement’ on live TV in front of million… well, whatever, of fans around the country in primetime.
Hey Dave Meltzer! Give us your star rating and editorial!”
