Giulia is looking for the gold.
At Stardom Dream Queendom on December 29th, Giulia will challenge Syuri for the World Of Stardom Championship in the main event. Heading into that match, Giulia talked with Scott Edwards of Fightful to discuss the big title match and how she feels going into it, plus, she reveals possible future defenses if she were to win.
There has been and will probably never be another person who will surpass her for me. I believe she totally changed my life in wrestling. She is a precious person who is respected by all wrestlers regardless of career or age, and of course I am filled with respect for her. 2022, going separate ways with Syuri was a really big decision. However, I always felt that one day we would have to fight for everything. I have respect for her, but there are some things that are non-negotiable. There’s no doubt that she is a special person, but it this a big wall that I must face to get to the top. I have to shatter that wall into pieces.

She went on to reveal who she’d like to defend the title against if she were to win.
There’s Mayu Iwatani. She’s the symbol of Stardom, and I’ve had several fights with her at big shows, but all of them were non-title fights. For me, coming from outside of Stardom, it’s one of my goals to have a title match with the symbol of Stardom. A match with her is always different from what I imagined it would be. That’s what makes it interesting. How will I respond to moves and techniques that are beyond my expectations? I am excited about the matchup. I want everyone overseas to look forward to it. I also want to fight against Utami Hayashishita. Like Mayu Iwatani, she is a great fighter who debuted in Stardom. I have been fighting in Stardom for three years, but I have never had a singles match with Utami. I think one of the reasons is that when I was fighting as the White Belt champion, she was fighting as the Red Belt champion. It would be very thrilling and exciting if my first match with her could be a title match on a big show. Lastly, if I were to give lip service, it would be Tsukasa Fujimoto, who lured me into the world of professional wrestling. She is currently on a leave of absence due to childbirth, but I hear she will be back soon. If the timing is right, I have a feeling that I would like her to challenge for my title. I have many feelings of gratitude and also resentment towards her…I would like to meet her in the ring.
