New WWE Star Missing Major PLE

Triple H WWE

Shortly before WrestleMania, it was reported that Giulia had agreed a deal to join WWE. The star was presented to the crowd at NXT Stand & Deliver before also attending WWE’s showpiece event.

However, before heading to NXT, Giulia agreed to appear for Marigold which is run by former Stardom boss Rossy Ogawa. But as it turned out an unfortunate accident in her first match for the promotion threw her plans into chaos. During the main event of the company’s first event, Giulia broke her wrist, but she remains determined to complete her existing bookings.

Back in April, it was reported WWE wanted Giulia to make her NXT debut at Heatwave on July 7th, to challenge for one of the brand’s women’s titles. This would have theoretically seen the star challenge Roxanne Perez for the NXT Women’s Title or Kelani Jordan for the newly-created Women’s North American Title.

Giulia Not Scheduled For Major WWE NXT Show

Writing in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer confirmed that Giulia will not be at NXT Heatwave as she is still on the road for Marigold despite her injury:

Giulia is on the road this weekend with Marigold even though she’s not wrestling. But she won’t be in Toronto for Heatwave and was always planned to be at the Marigold events this week.
