"Stick to your guns" - Former WWE talents open up about Sasha Banks and Naomi's situation

IMPACT star Chelsea Green talks about Sasha Banks and Naomi's controversial WWE walk-out.

The Hot Mess was a shining prospect, however, the creative team was unable to find anything for her long-term. After her release the following April, she returned to IMPACT Wrestling, where she is thriving with her real-life husband Matt Cardona. On a recent episode of the Universal Wrestling Podcast, Green opened up about the situation with Banks and Naomi.

“Well I mean, it’s really kind of hard to pass judgment on them for so many different reasons," said Green. "I wish I knew more of the story. We’re slowly kind of figuring it out. I think it’s really unfortunate it was posted online. I think that’s strange and it almost made all of us feel ‘Is it real?’. I’ve kind of slowly learned that yes it is real. I’ve always been one that feels like you should stick up for yourself." [H/T - Fightful]

Green then recalled how she previously asked for her release from IMPACT Wrestling, and she stated that the duo should stick to their guns.

"I won the IMPACT title in 2018 and I asked for my release that night, sitting in bed with the title in my lap," Green continued. "There are just some moments in your life where you’ve made a decision and you can’t go back. You just have to stick to your guns. Maybe that’s what happened to them, I don’t know... You can’t back out. If that’s what you feel, you better flipping feel it to the end until you get into your car and go home. Stick to your guns.” [H/T - Fightful]

It's safe to say Green found her way back and has appeared on several independent promotions since. Several wrestlers in the industry have stepped forward and talked about the incident with Banks and Naomi as well.
