Japanese star Giulia announced this morning that she will depart Japan for WWE next month with her final Marigold appearance being 8/19.in Tokyo at Korakuen Hall.
PWInsider.com first broke back in November 2023 that Japanese sources had confirmed WWE was courting Guilia, who at the time was the reigning New Japan Strong Women's Champion.
Giulia first debuted for the Ice Ribbon promotion back in 2017 after training under Mio Shirai. She debuted for World Wonder Stardom in 2019, announced at the time as signing with the promotion. She has been one of the centerpiece talents for the promotion, having captured the World of Stardom Championship, the Wonder of Stardom title and the Goddess of Stardom Championship. In STARDOM, she was a member of Donna del Mondo with Thekla and Mai Sakura and was an Artist of Stardom Champion alongside del Mondo. She later exited STARDOM to help launch the Marigold promotion.
Beyond her incredible in-ring work, Giulia has an absolutely amazing level of charisma and poise, so it was a no-brainer that WWE would want her.
There's no word when she would start with WWE NXT at this time as it would be dependent on her work visa, similarly to another recent signing, Stephanie Vaquer.
