Giulia, the highly touted Japanese import, has wasted no time making an impact in NXT. Since her debut at NXT No Mercy in October, she has already challenged for the NXT Women’s Championship and formed a tag team with Stephanie Vaquer. But her ambitions extend far beyond her current accomplishments.
In a recent interview with Bully Ray on Busted Open Radio, Giulia expressed her desire to face Vaquer in a singles match, stating, “I want to wrestle her.” She also revealed her dream opponents on the main roster, naming several top Japanese stars and one in particular who has caught her eye:
“I want to fight Rhea Ripley, Kairi (Sane), IYO SKY, Asuka. I want to wrestle the Japanese girls and Rhea Ripley. I love Rhea Ripley. Big fan.”

This bold statement puts the NXT women’s division on notice, with Giulia clearly aiming for the top. A potential showdown with Ripley, a dominant force in WWE, would be a dream match for many fans, pitting two of the most physically imposing women in wrestling against each other.
Giulia’s journey in NXT is just beginning, but she has already made a strong impression with her hard-hitting style and undeniable charisma. As she continues to climb the ranks, her dream matches may become a reality sooner than later.
Next Up for Giulia:
Giulia is set to face Kelani Jordan in an Iron Survivor Qualifying match on Tuesday’s episode of NXT. This high-stakes bout will determine whether she earns a spot in the prestigious Iron Survivor Challenge at NXT Deadline.
