On Monday, August 3rd, 2026, Chelsea Green secured the Interim WWE Women’s Championship in a thrilling ladder match at SummerSlam held at Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, United States. Green outlasted formidable opponents including Jade Cargill, Lash Legend, Charlotte Flair, and Tiffany Stratton, overcoming additional challenges from Michin and B-Fab to climb the ladder and claim the title.

Green’s victory was celebrated wildly by the crowd at Bank Stadium. This interim title comes as the official WWE Women’s Champion, Rhea Ripley, remains sidelined due to injury. Green’s extensive wrestling resume includes being the first WWE Women’s United States Champion, a WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion, and holding titles such as the Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) Knockouts Championship, the National Wrestling Alliance’s Women’s Invitational Cup, and Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide’s mixed tag team championship.

As Green now leads the SmackDown roster, anticipation builds for Ripley’s potential return, which could set the stage for a championship unification match to determine the undisputed WWE Women’s Champion.
