Ladies and gentlemen, tonight, live from the Moda Center in scenic Portland, Oregon—the city of artisanal donuts and questionable traffic patterns—Chelsea Green is set to defend her shiny new Women’s United States Championship against none other than Michin. Yes, the Michin. The one who recently reminded Green what it’s like to take out the trash…by becoming it.
Dumpster Memories: A Tale of Trashy Feuds
Let’s rewind, folks. Just last year, these two broke barriers, tables, and a few OSHA guidelines in WWE’s first-ever Women’s Dumpster Match. Michin channeled her inner sanitation worker and sent Green through a table straight into the trash. Rumor has it, the garbage can filed a workers’ comp claim.
Fast forward to December, the duo clashed in the finals of the Women’s US Championship tournament. With Piper Niven playing the role of “well-timed distraction,” Green snagged the gold. Michin, however, wasn’t about to let bygones be bygones. She made her stance crystal clear: Chelsea’s reign is on borrowed time, and Michin’s kendo stick is a firm believer in tough love.
SmackDown Showdown: Trash Talk vs. Title Gold
While internal whispers suggested this battle might headline January’s WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, the powers-that-be decided Portland deserved the chaos early. Who could blame them? Nothing says “prime-time entertainment” like Michin and Green duking it out with an atmosphere of simmering resentment and potential kendo stick warfare.
As a side note, Green’s tag partner Piper Niven, also known as “Plan B,” is likely to be nearby. Will she have another pivotal moment? Or will Michin ensure Green’s title reign ends with a kendo stick symphony?
Elsewhere on SmackDown: LA Knight vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
In other SmackDown happenings, LA Knight looks to reclaim the United States Championship from Shinsuke Nakamura. Fun fact: Knight’s loss at Survivor Series: WarGames marked the most dramatic fallout since someone added pineapple to pizza. Will he take back the gold, or will Nakamura keep riding the wave of victory? Stay tuned, folks.
