Giulia 'sits out' major WWE title match; forced to take part moments later

Modified Feb 16, 2025 01:38 GMT

Giulia is set to defend her title tonight at Vengeance Day 2025. However, she will have to endure her toughest challenge yet.

Since Giulia arrived in NXT, she had her eyes set on the Women's Title. She first competed for the gold on the October 1, 2024, episode of NXT but lost due to interference from Cora Jade. After becoming the Iron Survivor, she earned another title shot against Roxanne Perez and defeated her at New Year's Evil 2025.

Despite the loss, Roxanne Perez was still not done with the 30-year-old. Meanwhile, Bayley returned to NXT to confront Perez and soon found herself in the NXT Women's Title picture. Hence, a Triple Threat match was announced for Vengeance Day between the former Rok-C, The Role Model, and the NXT Women's Champion.

After Cora Jade defeated Bayley this week on the black-and-silver brand, she was added to the title match, making it a Fatal Four-Way bout. At the start of the contest, the NXT Women's Champion was not interested in getting involved in the action as she sat on the turnbuckle and encouraged her opponents to fight among themselves. However, she was dragged into the contest moments later.

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker.
