After months of speculation, one of the fastest-rising young female talents, Giulia has arrived in the WWE. She was in attendance at the latest bygone WWE NXT Stand and Deliver premium live event to join the third brand of the TKO-owned company.
Giulia first appeared at WWE World in Philadelphia this week to raise questions about her recent signing with the WWE. Then she was seen among the crowd before the NXT Women’s Title match between Lyra Valkyria and Roxanne Perez. Including the likes of Drew McIntyre, Ricochet, and more like the old NXT days, the former Japanese talent was thus introduced to the WWE Universe.

After Stand & Deliver went off the air, Giulia herself took to Twitter to share a photo of her backstage encounter with Triple H who also acknowledged the post, and welcomed her to WrestleMania XL Weekend with the hashtag #StandAndDeliver,
”Welcome to #WrestleMania XL Weekend, @giulia0221g . #StandAndDeliver”

Heading into Stand and Deliver 2024, Corey Brennan of Fightful Select first reported that multiple sources within NXT have indicated that Giulia will be joining the WWE Performance Center and NXT after fulfilling her remaining commitments outside the company. It was also noted that an immediate debut on the main roster was not on the cards and joining NXT further proved the reports of her NXT arrival to be true.
Giulia impresses WWE officials by improving their English skills
While Giulia’s English language skills have been improving which is a positive sign for the WWE officials, it’s been noted that there are no significant concerns in this regard since there are other Japanese talents like Asuka or IYO SKY who barely face any hindrance due to language issues.
It was in early February that news first surfaced about Giulia opting to postpone her WWE debut in order to honor her commitment to STARDOM and help the founder Rossy with his latest venture. Even before this, she had expressed her intention to address the outstanding matters in Japan before transitioning to WWE.
Starting on NXT, Giulia is expected to become a dominant force on the brand. WWE has also debuted a new NXT Women’s North American Championship at Stand and Deliver for which she should be in pursuit unless the company keeps her out of the mix.
