Former NXT Women’s Champion Giulia has broken her silence after losing her title as Stephanie Vaquer made history.

Giulia made a splash when she finally joined WWE in the summer of 2024. But the former NJPW STRONG Women’s Champion’s arrival was soon somewhat diluted when she was joined in NXT by the woman who defeated her for her NJPW gold, Stephanie Vaquer.

Giulia and Vaquer have stood side-by-side on several occasions since joining WWE including at Halloween Havoc where they defeated the team of Cora Jade and Roxanne Perez. But it seemed that it was only a matter of time before they finally had to face each other in the ring.

The stakes for any potential meeting between Giulia and Vaquer were heightened when Vaquer captured the NXT Women’s North American Championship from Fallon Henley and Giulia won the NXT Women’s Title from Roxanne Perez.

Giulia then challenged Vaquer to a champion vs. champion match. The real reason for the double title match being made was revealed beforehand but on NXT Roadblock it took place with one woman now ruling over the brand. Stephanie Vaquer defeated Giulia to win the NXT Women’s Champion making her a double champion.

Taking to social media, Giulia expressed her frustration after losing her gold but congratulated Stephanie Vaquer who she said deserved the win:

I lost. It’s frustrating, but she deserved the win. Congrats, my friend! I’m not done yet… I’m still burning with determination! #WWENXT
