CM Punk's A-List Wake-Up & Chelsea Green's Playboy Past: Ten Things You May Have Missed In Wrestling This Week

2. The Future Of Playboy?

What's a recently released WWE superstar to do? 

Chelsea Green hinted at her future plans during a recent edition of her Green with Envy podcast, itself a new venture started during post-WWE life. 

Green mentioned how she had been approached by someone at Playboy about the two parties working together, but not before she told the story of her audition for the magazine (which no longer exists) some eleven years ago.

According to Chelsea, the tryout was a very positive experience: 

"I get changed into my outfit, I put my lip gloss on, I've got my eyeshadow, my skinny little eyebrows going on, and I have my heels on. I decided to go for a little hot, hot pink bra and undies set, and I thought I looked like the f*cking cat's meow. I was like, 'There's no way they won't choose me'.

You go in, there's a couple of people sitting behind a desk with screens – they're obviously looking at the shots as they come up… You go in and it's a photoshoot, plain white backdrop. You basically tell them a little bit about yourselves, tell them what you like to do and why you love Playboy, and why you wanna do it and you pose.

It was kind of a very normal casting call. I will say, I don't believe I got fully naked – I did take my top off, obviously, but I don't remember taking my underwear off. At the time, I was like 20 years old, whatever – I loved my boobs! I had zero issues with my body and I’ve played sports my whole life, so I was in shape and stuff even though I was eating Cheetos for lunch in college".

She went on to talk about what the future may hold for her relationship with playboy, after a company representative got in touch with her following her WWE release:

"I totally feel like we connected, he had such a great vibe about him, and he kinda enlightened me to what 2021 and future Playboy looks like – which is not the brick-and-mortar stuff. It is the digital side things, and the influencing side of things, and blogging, vlogging, hosting, podcasting, all that kind of stuff that they didn’t have before that they want to expand Playboy into. 

I do feel really positive about the fact that in the future – and maybe it's not in 2021, maybe it's at the beginning of 2022, we're not sure, but Chelsea Green might be the future of Playboy". 

So make fun of Zack Ryder for collecting dolls all you want (and I will), but the man is engaged to, potentially, the future of Playboy.
