Brace yourselves, WWE Universe, because the highly anticipated debut of Giulia is taking a detour on the Injury Express! Our wrestling heroine fractured her wrist in a colossal clash at Marigold’s inaugural show, Fields Forever, while teaming with Utami Hayashishita against Sareee and Bozilla. With the injury demanding immediate attention, Giulia recently underwent surgery that Marigold triumphantly announced was a smashing success.
On the latest edition of “Wrestling Observer Radio,” the ever-knowledgeable Dave Meltzer spilled the tea that Giulia had initially planned to keep wrestling despite the injury. Talk about guts! She was eyeing a return to the ring on July 13 for a singles match against Sareee. However, WWE—being the cautious custodians they are—insisted she undergo surgery instead. Safety first, folks!
Now, here’s the million-dollar question: When will Giulia be back in action? Wrist fractures, unfortunately, are no joke and can sideline a superstar for up to three months, depending on the severity. This means Giulia might miss her showdown with Sareee and the rumored battle at NXT’s Toronto event against NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez. Some sources, however, are playing the “she wasn’t scheduled anyway” card, suggesting Giulia’s full-time NXT debut would come later in 2024 after finishing more dates with Marigold.
But fear not, wrestling fans! Giulia isn’t one to waste time. With a heart as big as her talent, she’s turning her recovery period into a mentorship mission, guiding the next generation of wrestling stars. Since her transition from Stardom to Marigold, Giulia has been the ultimate coach, helping to build a robust roster for the budding promotion.
