Japanese wrestling sensation Giulia has finished her time in the country, ahead of a reported run as part of the WWE NXT roster. In a gauntlet match, Giulia faced the entire Marigold roster, who were each given a minute in the ring with the WWE prospect. Giulia’s final opponent was Utami Hayashista in the first-ever singles showdown between the two STARDOM alum.
After the match, the entire roster emerged once more to celebrate Giulia and Rossy Ogawa presented her with a large bouquet of flowers. An emotional Giulia spoke of her love for the roster and the fans before ending with a message to “Shine forever, Marigold!”
What’s to Come?
Giulia announced earlier this year that she would be wrapping up her time competing in Japan but isn’t finished in the ring. It has been reported that she has signed with WWE and won’t just be part of the NXT brand, but will be a leading name in the women’s division, rivaling the impact of Asuka. WWE NXT’s next major event will be the No Mercy show that will take place next week on September 1.
Giulia appeared for WWE at NXT Stand & Deliver in April of this year and if she joins, will be the latest prominent woman to sign with WWE. Stephanie Vaquer signed with WWE earlier this year, mere days after competing at AEWxNJPW: Forbidden Door 2024. DELTA, who is said to have impressed at the Elimination Chamber: Perth tryouts, has reportedly signed with the promotion.
Stay tuned to SE Scoops for the latest on Giulia and her future in the ring now that her time competing in Japan is officially over.
