So here’s the scoop, folks: rumors about Giulia, the former World of Stardom champion, making her way to WWE have been swirling like a mystery novel. It all started with her injury at Marigold’s big debut show, but the whispers of her WWE journey began long before she even entered free agency back in March. And let’s not forget her ringside cameo at “NXT” Stand & Deliver in April—practically a neon sign saying, “I’m coming, WWE!”
But since then, it’s been quieter than a librarian in a championship match. No official debut date for Giulia has been announced, leaving fans biting their nails and Dave Meltzer doing his best Sherlock Holmes impression. In his latest “Wrestling Observer Newsletter,” Meltzer revealed that sources from Marigold, WWE, and Giulia’s own circle insist she’s not expected to debut as early as July. This is especially true after her injury. And here’s a plot twist: wrestlers are sometimes told to keep their debut dates hush-hush, so who knows what’s really going on?
Over at Fightful Select, they’ve thrown their hat into the ring too, saying that the anticipated Giulia vs. Roxanne Perez match in Toronto was more of a “wish upon a wrestling star” situation, dependent on her commitments in Japan. But WWE is definitely keeping that dream alive for when Giulia finally graces the NXT stage. They’re also cool with her healing up in Japan, with a plan to bring her to “WWE NXT” before she makes a permanent move to the USA. It seems her injury isn’t as bad as feared, but her return is still as predictable as a wrestling promo—contingent on that bone healing properly.
Meanwhile, back at Marigold, Fightful says Giulia is set to honor the dates she missed due to her injury. And don’t worry about her going WWE-exclusive just yet—working in Japan was a major point in her contract talks. When she finally steps into the WWE ring, she’s expected to be the new queen of NXT, with insiders predicting she’ll outshine even Asuka’s achievements.
