Earlier this week, Dream Star Fighting Marigold’s founder and head of booking, Hiroshi Ogawa hinted at Giulia’s departure from the Japanese Promotion. He said that she didn’t have much time left in Japan and asked who could take her from there.
Is Giulia joining WWE?
Earlier this year, Giulia made her surprise appearance at the WWE NXT Stand and Deliver 2024 pay-per-view, seated among the NXT Universe and had a huge reaction from the fans.
Following that Fightful Select reported that WWE had a negotiation with her in April 2024 and she agreed to join WWE, finishing her scheduled dates in Japan. It was believed that WWE showed a major interest in her, more than AEW and the deal was made official, with William Regal playing a major role in the negotiations.
