One of the most popular free agents on the market has been spotted at the WWE World event in Philadelphia amid reports of major interest by the promotion.
Giulia was seen walking the floor at the event and took photos with fans who recognized her. Giulia was seen alongside STARDOM founder Rossy Ogawa who was ousted from the promotion earlier this year.
In November 2023, it was reported that WWE had shown great interest in Giulia, a former NJPW Strong Women’s Champion. At the time it was said that the company had a “massive” interest in obtaining her services. While it was believed she would be attending a private try-out at the WWE Performance Center, those plans fell apart.

Delay in Joining WWE?
Giulia told STARDOM higher-ups last month that she was planning on leaving the promotion. While several signs point to Giulia joining WWE, it may not happen as quickly as the company would hope.
Giulia has spoken in the past about having ‘things to do’ in Japan before she leaves for WWE. It is believed that she will first do work for Rossy Ogawa’s rumored promotion. Ogawa was fired from STARDOM after it was claimed he was ‘poaching’ talent.
Giulia gave her word to Ogawa that she would help out if he launched a promotion which has taken priority over joining WWE. Ogawa has refuted the claim that he poached talent away from STARDOM. With his exit, Bushiroad, the parent company of STARDOM, has appointed Taro Okada and Oyama, the Bushiroad Fight merchandise manager in charge.
