WWE Stars Damian Priest and Chelsea Green Earn Backstage Praise

STAMFORD, Conn. (AP) — Two stars from WWE SmackDown are receiving high praise backstage for their hard work, especially around WrestleMania season. Damian Priest and Chelsea Green have caught the attention of their peers for their efforts both in and out of the ring.

Priest has garnered respect from fellow wrestlers for his resilience during his ongoing feud with Drew McIntyre. Despite being banged up, he fought through the challenges leading up to their matchup at WrestleMania 41, where they faced off in a dramatic contest that featured McIntyre’s signature Claymore kick.

A source within WWE noted, “Damian’s toughness shows how dedicated he is to his craft.” This dedication has positioned him as a significant player in the company.

Meanwhile, Chelsea Green has also made headlines for her commendable efforts outside of the ring. Known for her reliability with media obligations, Green stepped up during WrestleMania weekend, contributing to various community outreach events, despite not having a match on the card that weekend. A source emphasized her commitment, comparing her to The Miz, a well-known WWE ambassador.

In a recent interview, Green expressed her ambition to emulate The Miz’s work ethic and balance, stating, “I want to be recognized as the female Miz.” Her determination has been evident since she became the inaugural Women's United States Champion in December.

As the wrestling world prepares for the next edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event, Green’s contributions remain noteworthy. Despite the absence of scheduled women’s matches for the upcoming show, her positive reputation continues to shine.
