Chelsea Green Originally Thought WWE Would Be Upset After Matt Cardona Wore Replica Women’s Tag Titles In Japan

Matt Cardona loves to have fun.

Last July, Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville would go on to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships on an episode of Monday Night Raw. This immediately sparked an idea from Matt Cardona to wear a replica version during his time in Japan when he competed for DDT.

In an interview with Joe Vulpis on the Lightweights Podcast, Green spoke about the situation and how she originally thought that the WWE would be upset about it, thinking Green gave Cardona the real women’s tag team championships.

“Oh my gosh. Okay, so he came and watched me win the title in Atlanta. I guess after I won the title, he immediately went online and bought the replica, got overnighted by WWE Shop or Fanatics, and had it like two days later to go to Japan with. He didn’t ask me, he didn’t tell me. I saw him with it in Japan. Everyone thought, because he was in Japan on my off days, that it was the real belt. Yes [everyone thought he took my belt]. I was just waiting for someone at work to call me and ask. Thank god they did not believe it. But I was worried. I was worried, I’m not gonna lie, because he does stuff like that. He does crazy things. He makes videos out of all my wrestling stuff. I am the butt of all his jokes [laughs]. So I really thought that WWE was gonna get mad at me, and I was gonna have to prove, like, ‘Here I am, this is the belt. He’s got a different one,'” Green said

After Deville suffered an injury, Green had to replace them with Piper Niven before the two lost the WWE Tag Team Championships to Katana Chance and Kayden Carter last December on Monday Night Raw.
