Because I\u2019m on SmackDown every single Friday, that kind of wrestling acting, that over acting, that really theatrical acting, that does not help on camera&#8230; That doesn\u2019t help for film and TV. That helps in theater, that helps if I was doing a theater production, a musical theater production, a stage show, a live audience show, like that\u2019s amazing&#8230; But it hurts me in terms of overacting on camera, so I really have to pull everything back and work on feeling it, as opposed to expressing it.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>You can check out her words below:<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"sportskeeda-embed\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/embed\">\n<div class=\"yt-wrapper\">                    <noscript><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Chelsea Green Interview - &#039;B;ue Ridge&#039; #chelseagren #blueridge\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K7AH_PtGBNY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript>                    <\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube\" data-embed=\"K7AH_PtGBNY\">\n<div class=\"play-button\"><img height=\"370\" width=\"660\" data-img=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/K7AH_PtGBNY\/sddefault.jpg\" data-img-low=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/K7AH_PtGBNY\/sddefault.jpg\" class=\"lazy-img\" alt=\"youtube-cover\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Chelsea Green also talked about ways WWE has helped her acting<\/h2>\n<p>While Chelsea Green was honest about how her career in the pro wrestling field has caused problems, she also noted it has also helped her in some ways.<\/p>\n<p>Adding to her previous comments in the same interview, the WWE star stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cWhat helps me in wrestling is that we\u2019re constantly improvising, so I don\u2019t fear necessarily being put in a situation where I don\u2019t know what\u2019s going to happen next. I\u2019m in that, every single Friday on SmackDown or every single Monday on Raw&#8230; I think that\u2019s a really incredible skill that not many actors have. I think all or most wrestlers have it, but I don\u2019t necessarily think that comes naturally to actors, because most of the time, we\u2019re given a script, we memorize the script, we say the script.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Chelsea Green is currently getting ready for the interim WWE Women\u2019s Championship ladder match at SummerSlam.
