Giulia Says She Has to Be on SummerSlam

WWE Women’s United States Champion Giulia isn’t taking no for an answer—she wants in on SummerSlam.

For the first time ever, WWE’s biggest event of the summer will span two nights, taking place on August 2nd and 3rd in New Jersey. But as of now, Giulia isn’t booked—and she’s not happy about it.

Speaking to ABEMA, the former STARDOM standout opened up about the expansion of SummerSlam and her desire to be part of it.

“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.”

Giulia didn’t stop there—she made it clear that she’s holding back some surprises for the right moment, and SummerSlam could be that stage.

“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.”

The Japanese powerhouse captured the WWE Women’s United States Championship by defeating Zelina Vega on the June 27th episode of SmackDown. But with SummerSlam rapidly approaching, she’s not just looking to defend her title—she wants a spotlight match that shows WWE fans everything she’s capable of.
