WWE NXT women’s division received a pleasant surprise during the NXT Stand & Deliver premium live event where Giulia made an appearance. After months of speculations, one of the fastest-rising young female talents in the pro-wrestling circuit has thereby found her new home but she’s put on hold rather than making an imminent debut on NXT programming.
While there’s no confirmed update on when that debut would happen on NXT programming, some big plans should be in the pipeline. According to a report by Fightful Select, it was noted that NXT sources are optimistic about Giulia being positioned as the leading female figure of the brand upon her arrival. One source is also expecting that she will go beyond the impact that Asuka had during her tenure in NXT.
“Those in NXT that we spoke to continue to push that Giulia will be presented as the female face of the brand upon her arrival, with one source expecting her to surpass what Asuka achieved in NXT during her run.”
