Chelsea Green talks influence of Total Divas

[Chris]

“Joe, every day. Every minute of every hour of every day I think about Total Divas. The demand is there and I get told that all the time. I’ve also been told by numerous different people in WWE and outside of WWE and Hollywood that they’ve been pushing for it for years.”

“I think it’ll happen whether it’s called Total Divas or not I think it’ll come back in one way or another because how could it not?”

“Truly, Total Divas is what got 75 percent of the females in NXT there,” she continued. “It attracted those women to wrestling.”

“When I talk to a regular girly from Canada, one of the girls I went to high school with, one of my best friends, they know wrestling through knowing Natty and the Bellas through Total Divas. Like, they don’t care about winning or losing, they just want to know who I work with that was on Total Divas and I get it, I was there.”

“I think my goal is to always attract women to wrestling and it’s not necessarily because like I need you to love wrestling, I just loved the fan base that surrounded Total Divas because I was in it, I was a fangirl. That’s why I am obsessed with the Bellas. And look at them, their following is amazing. They have a cult following of women. That’s what I want. F— the boys, I want the girlies and the gays to follow me.”

“I would like to be the crossover talent for the females cause we haven’t really seen that yet. We saw the Bellas, obviously cross over between WWE and reality TV, WWE and entrepreneurship; I think they’ve done amazing with that, but I don’t think we’ve truly seen a woman cross over and do WWE and Hollywood yet.”
