WWE Champion Won’t Be Able To Forgive Themselves If They Miss SummerSlam
A popular WWE star wants to defend their title at SummerSlam.
On the June 27 edition of SmackDown, Giulia took the latest step on her rise to the top of WWE by winning the Women’s United States Championship. With victory over Zelina Vega, Giulia became the third woman to hold the title after Chelsea Green became the inaugural champion in December 2024.
Following her win, it was reported that WWE has big plans for Giulia and is preparing her to become one of the top stars in the division.
Giulia signed with WWE in April 2024 and quickly won the NXT Women’s Championship before moving to the main roster.
Giulia Dreaming Of WWE SummerSlam Match
During a new interview with ABEMA (Translation via NeitroV), Giulia said she’s in an amazing place, but is desperate to be involved in “super big matches,” including a bout at SummerSlam.
“So far, it’s only been one day, right? It shows that WWE is getting bigger and bigger. I feel most deeply that I am in a truly amazing place.
I also really want to be in those super big matches. If I don’t do anything for two days, I don’t think I can forgive myself. So I definitely have to get in there. I want to have a title match.”
When asked what she might have in store for fans if she’s added to the show, she said she’s got “special moves” waiting to be unleashed.
“Even now, the most important thing to me is being myself. I want to show a special costume or look.
Since I came to America, I have many Giulia special moves that I haven’t shown in matches yet. I wish I could show that.”
Giulia is yet to defend the Women’s United States Championship since beating Vega back in late June.
At present, four women’s matches have been announced for SummerSlam, with the Women’s Championship, Women’s World Championship, Women’s Intercontinental Championship, and Women’s Tag Team Championship all up for grabs.
In 2025, the event will be a two-night affair for the first time.
