Tommy Dreamer, a WWE legend and backstage influencer with strong ties to both WWE and Impact Wrestling (formerly TNA), recently reaffirmed his high praise for WWE star Chelsea Green, describing her as “must-watch television” every time she appears in front of the camera. This endorsement from one of wrestling’s most respected veterans highlights Green’s growing status inside WWE and the wider wrestling landscape.
A Legitimate Star in the Making
Chelsea Green is currently one of WWE’s most promising female stars, holding the WWE Women’s United States Championship and frequently delivering standout performances on shows like WWE NXT and SmackDown. Dreamer, who has worked closely with talent behind the scenes in both WWE and Impact Wrestling, praised Green’s ability to captivate audiences regardless of the match or segment.
“Every single time Chelsea’s on screen, you know you’re going to get must-watch TV,” Dreamer said in a recent interview with wrestling media. “Her presence, her work ethic, and her ability to tell a story — it all comes together. She’s not just a competitor; she’s an entertainer in the truest sense”[3][4].
Green’s wrestling resume extends beyond WWE. She made a name for herself in Impact Wrestling, where she was a Knockouts World Champion and a Knockouts Tag Team Champion. Her success there, combined with her current WWE push, underscores her versatility and broad appeal across different wrestling audiences.
Possible Impact Wrestling Crossover?
Beyond WWE, Chelsea Green has expressed interest in crossing over to Impact Wrestling (TNA), especially since WWE and Impact announced an official partnership in early 2024 that opened doors for talent exchanges. Green has been actively communicating with Tommy Dreamer, who plays a key behind-the-scenes role in Impact, regarding potential crossover matches.
In a recent candid moment on the Busted Open Radio show, Green admitted to texting Dreamer with ideas about coming over to Impact and even pitched a high-profile match against one of Impact’s top stars, Masha Slamovich. She playfully called herself “Miss America, Lady Liberty” and suggested a winner-takes-all scenario for the championships[1].
Dreamer, known for his honest and thoughtful approach, responded cautiously, noting that such a match would be “above his pay grade” but did not close the door on the possibility. Sources close to WWE backstage indicate that talks are ongoing but no formal plans have been finalized yet[1][2].
Backstage Buzz: WWE and Impact Both Taking Notice
According to a WWE insider familiar with backstage dynamics, Chelsea Green is “exactly the kind of talent management wants to build around.” The insider explained, “She’s charismatic, consistent, and ready to carry bigger storylines. With the WWE-Impact partnership, talents like Chelsea are vital to bridging fanbases and creating unique, must-see moments.”
This insider also hinted that Dreamer’s enthusiastic support inside WWE acts as a huge morale boost. “When someone like Tommy Dreamer calls you ‘must-watch TV,’ people listen. It resonates backstage because Tommy has seen every type of talent out there”[3].
What This Means for Chelsea Green’s Future
With Dreamer’s public backing and her rapid ascent in WWE, Chelsea Green’s future looks very bright. Fans can expect more prominent storylines and possibly high-stakes matches that might play into inter-promotional rivalries via the WWE-Impact partnership.
Green’s pure in-ring skill combined with her natural charisma makes her a rare package in today’s women’s wrestling scene. As WWE increases the spotlight on her character, Dreamer’s endorsement serves to elevate her credibility and marketability.
Tommy Dreamer’s Take on Chelsea Green vs. Roxanne Perez
Dreamer has also praised Green’s performances against other top-tier talent. Following a WWE NXT main event with Roxanne Perez—a match many considered a breakout moment—Dreamer called it “a great match from Chelsea Green,” adding that Perez demonstrated why she deserved her title, while Green brought intensity and storytelling that impressed him greatly[4][5].
This match is widely regarded as one of the best women’s matches on recent NXT shows and helped cement Chelsea Green’s reputation for delivering high-quality wrestling on the big stage.
With both veteran approval and fan interest building, Chelsea Green is shaping up to be one of WWE’s most exciting stars. As Tommy Dreamer says, whenever she’s on screen, it’s truly “must-watch TV.”
Fans should stay tuned to see if Green’s crossover ambitions with Impact Wrestling will materialize, potentially leading to some historic encounters across promotions.
