Twitter user @salsaboiii, who does graphic designing, wrote that former WWE star Chelsea Green used one of his creations without giving him credit. A screenshot was shared of @salsaboiii asking Green for credit and she responded by stating that she deleted the image. It was also noted that @salsaboiii was then blocked by Green.
The post has gone viral on Twitter with numerous people commenting on the matter:
The whole Chelsea Green thing could have been resolved with a single tweet. All the creator wanted was credit for their work.
The fact that Chelsea deleted it then blocked the artist rather than give her a shoutout speaks volumes about the kind of person she is.
Nasty.

There was also a similar issue involving The Young Bucks.
Green issued a statement regarding the matter:
“It’s super unfortunate how this has been handled. I think artists deserve credit. Period. After reading some of the nasty tweets, I didn’t feel reposting the art was something that I should do as clearly the artists view of me had soured. I support my artists. I pay my artists. I have been doing that since I started on the independent scene because I myself was a starving artist & I know the struggle. It’s really sad that an oversight on my part has lead to this, but I wish the artist luck and I think it’s best that I stick to the artists who I have used in the past and who know the person I am.”
Thanks for the ref!
