Giulia update: No talks with AEW, will remain in Japan or sign with WWE

AEW is not currently considered a serious player to sign NJPW Strong Women’s Champion Giulia. 

The 29-year-old is under contract to Bushiroad until March but WWE has expressed interest in signing her should she become a free agent. WWE has had Giulia on their radar dating back to 2019. 

Our own Dave Meltzer addressed the latest on Giulia in today’s edition of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter. He wrote that there have been no talks between her and AEW and that she is either WWE-bound or will re-sign with Bushiroad.

Nothing new on Giulia past that AEW has never made a serious play for her and she’s had no conversations with AEW and is not considering them. It’s WWE or staying in Japan.

Giulia is set to defend her title against Megan Bayne at Stardom Dream Queendom on December 29. Should she successfully retain, her next challenger will likely be Trish Adora at Battle in the Valley in San Jose on January 13.
