What Chelsea Green told AJ Styles about her broken orbital bone
As seen during the August 14th 2026 edition of SmackDown, General Manager Nick Aldis attempted to have Chelsea Green relinquish the WWE women’s championship due to her broken orbital bone. However, Chelsea pleaded with Aldis, which led to him giving her 30 days to receive medical clearance. As a result, Chelsea will remain champion during that period.
While speaking on his podcast, WWE Hall of Famer AJ Styles revealed that he spoke with Chelsea…
“There gonna throw a mask on her, I’m sure of it. Actually, I did get to see her. I think she came down to the trainers. I believe she lives in Florida. So, I saw her at the trainers at the Performance Center, and she’s doing okay. She’s not mad about the situation. It is what it is. She said she had some bad luck.
Well, I don’t know about that. To me, when I see someone get hurt and they go, ‘Nope, we’re still doing this,’ to me, it makes them a bigger babyface.
Becky Lynch became a super duper star because she got punched in the face. I believe it broke her nose. I could be wrong about this.
She became a bigger star because of that. Like, she became a star because of it. Because that picture of her all bloodied up going, ‘Come on.’ Oh my gosh, that was so freaking awesome. I remember seeing it and going, ‘Wow, that’s a star.'”
