WWE Champion Chelsea Green Leaves X Permanently Due to Sustained Online Harassment

Green says online narratives about her politics and personal life started following her into WWE, shaping fan reactions on TV and affecting how colleagues perceive her.
She previously walked away from Twitter before; Ethan Page told her not to return, with the admonition: 'If you’re leaving, you’re leaving for good this time. Do not embarrass yourself.'
Lainey Reid's Fatal Influence interview remarks were interpreted online as real-life statements about Green, illustrating how in-character content can be mistaken for actual commentary about her.
In the broader online discourse, Green faced MAGA accusations and even a White House post comparing Trump's point to a meme she and a colleague replicated on SmackDown.
Chelsea Green is the WWE Women's Champion, highlighting her prominence in the sport even as she exits X/Twitter for good.
WWE Women's Champion Chelsea Green has permanently left X/Twitter, citing relentless online harassment and a toxic culture that damaged her mental health and work relationships. eWrestling News reported that Green deactivated her account after facing sustained criticism from fans, describing the platform as no longer worth the toll it took on her life.
Green emphasized this departure is final. Sescoops noted that wrestling colleague Ethan Page warned her: "If you're leaving, you're leaving for good this time. Do not embarrass yourself." She stressed her exit stems from cyberbullying and dog-piling, not rejection of wrestling fans or the creative potential Twitter once offered.
Green revealed that critical online narratives about her personal beliefs and politics began seeping into her professional wrestling world. Fresno Bee reported that fan reactions to her televised appearances shifted based on false social media accusations. Colleagues' perceptions of her also changed, shaped by online misinformation rather than direct interactions with Green herself.
Green faced unfounded accusations linking her to political movements after a backstage segment aired on SmackDown. Star Telegram noted that online users misinterpreted in-character content from fellow wrestlers as real-life commentary about Green. Even a White House post comparing Trump's messaging to a meme Green replicated on television fueled false narratives about her political alignment.
This is not Green's first attempt to quit social media. She had previously stepped away from Twitter but felt pulled back. Sescoops reported that Page's direct warning motivated her to stay gone this time. Green acknowledged that the constant negativity and dog-piling no longer balanced against Twitter's creative benefits, making permanent departure the only viable option for her mental health.
