Chelsea Green Campaigning Hard To Join Hit ABC Network Show

Chelsea Green is not afraid to push for what she wants out of life.
The first and fourth ever WWE Women's United States Champion was a guest on a recent episode of the Bobbycast, with host Bobby Bones, and the two touched on a wide array of topics. Among them is Chelsea's desire to compete on the next season of "Dancing with the Stars".
It's not uncommon for professional wrestlers to be cast on the hit ABC Network show, with Stacy Keibler, The Miz, and Nikki Bella all gracing the ballroom floor at certain points in their careers. Green told Bones that she has been making numerous pitches to the powers that be for the past six months.
“I have been pestering the hell out of Dancing With The Stars and out of [the WWE] talent relations team," Chelsea said. "They hear from me every single Friday, whether it’s in person or by text. ‘Did Dancing with the Stars call yet? Have you asked Dancing with the Stars?’"
Green said that she knows the producers of the show and has spoken to both Nikki Bella and The Miz in an effort to get out on the dance floor next year.
"I am planting, watering, and fertilizing those seeds. I will be on 'Dancing With The Stars', it’s just a matter of time," Green said.
Chelsea Green is on quite the roll right now

Chelsea Green is currently experiencing one of the most successful stretches of her WWE career. She recently defeated Giulia on an episode of SmackDown to become the first two-time Women's United States Champion. She is also one half of the AAA Mixed Tag Team Champions, alongside NXT Men's North American Champion Ethan Page.

Bobby Bones was a competitor during the show's 27th season, and he wound up taking home the Mirrorball Trophy thanks to the overwhelming support from his fans. He promised to put in a good word for Chelsea to help get her on the show.
A 35th season for "Dancing with the Stars" has not officially been greenlit, but it's widely expected to premiere in mid-September 2026. Australian TV personality Robert Irwin, the son of the late Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin, was named the winner of Season 34 earlier this month.
