Chelsea Green made a huge statement during her entrance of this past weekend’s Royal Rumble match. Her entrance included the LGBTQ Rainbow Flag on the back. She made sure to turn around and show everyone her support.
Why was this so significant?
The Royal Rumble took place in the Tampa Bay area, more specifically St. Petersburg, Florida. Over the past year, Florida saw a slew of Anti-LGBTQ bills put forward. These included Extreme Gender Affirming Care Ban, the Anti-Trans Bathroom Bill, and the most talked about Don’t Say Gay Bill.
In an interview with Steve Fall of WrestlingNewsCo, Green explains her gear and how she wanted it to not only be put in people’s faces, but wanted to show uo as a front line supporter. With Sonya Deville, with Piper Niven, and all the other women in WWE that are in the community.
”I don’t want to be just a quiet supporter of the community.”
Green’s tag team partner Piper Niven, who came out as bisexual in 2019, also had a rainbow gear in mind, but it arrived late
