Chelsea Green pitched a high-stakes hair versus hair match against Nikki Bella for two consecutive WrestleManias, revealing that she was fully prepared to lose and shave her head to elevate the WWE Women’s United States Championship. According to interviews with Chris Van Vliet on Insight, the recently crowned WWE Women’s Champion stated that she repeatedly pushed for the feud in Las Vegas.
Details of the WrestleMania Hair vs. Hair Pitch
Green explained that her vision involved putting her own hair on the line against Nikki Bella across back-to-back WrestleMania events. While speaking on Insight, Green confirmed the seriousness of the proposal, noting that she was entirely willing to part with her hair if the storyline called for it.
I’m so serious that I pitched it for both WrestleManias in Vegas versus Nikki Bella. I’ll lose. I’ll shave my head,
Green said.
Green also shared details about how her husband, Matt Cardona, reacted to the idea. Cardona supported the aggressive creative direction, recognizing the historical significance such a moment would carry for her career.
My husband loves me, and he also was like, ‘Yeah, do it, whatever. That’d be so cool.’ He’s such a student of the game. He would love it. He would love knowing that I did something that would be history-making, right?
Green stated.
Motivation Behind the Title Elevation Strategy
Green’s primary motivation for the persistent pitching centered on increasing the prestige and perceived value of the WWE Women’s United States Championship. During her title reigns, she sought to establish the secondary belt as a major focal point rather than an afterthought beneath the primary women’s championship.
I so badly wanted to make the U.S. title something special. I don’t know that I was able to do that in my two reigns, but I think had I been able to have that feud with Nikki and shave my head, I think it would have cemented the U.S. title as something that wasn’t underneath this title, and that’s what I was trying to do,
Green said.
Green also envisioned winners of events like the Royal Rumble choosing to challenge the United States title holder, thereby bringing secondary championships into the main event conversation.
The only singles match between Green and Nikki Bella took place on a July 2025 episode of WWE Raw. Green currently holds the WWE Women’s Championship following an unexpected victory at WWE SummerSlam 2026, though she is managing a broken orbital bone injury and has no immediate plans for a head-shaving stipulation or an upcoming Premium Live Event title defense.
