Giulia Sets Sights on Rhea Ripley, Discusses Transition To The U.S.

WWE NXT Superstar Giulia may have only recently arrived in the silver brand, but the Japanese sensation already has her eyes on the main roster. Speaking to Bully Ray on Busted Open After Dark, Giulia shared who she plans to face in WWE.

“I want to wrestle the Japanese girls and Rhea Ripley. I love Rhea Ripley.”

Giulia may have to wait some time before she gets the chance to face Ripley as WWE reportedly has huge plans for her in NXT’s women’s division. On this week’s WWE NXT, Giulia vowed to become this year’s Women’s Iron Survivor winner at NXT Deadline. Ripley also had a huge week as ‘Mami’ returned from injury on Raw to attack Liv Morgan and will join Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill, Naomi, and IYO SKY in WarGames.

Transitioning to America

After being seen in the crowd at Stand & Deliver, Giulia made her official NXT debut at No Mercy after making a massive name for herself in Japan. On the podcast, Giulia contrasted her time competing in Japan to the United States.

“[It’s] Very different, the style, all different. Here [it is] very important, the TV program. There [they] don’t have TV program. Also, the audience [is] so different.”

Whether it’s in the United States or Japan, Giulia is continuing to win over audiences around the world as the ‘Beautiful Madness.’ Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Giulia as she has big plans for NXT and beyond now she’s part of WWE.
