Giulia Makes Surprise Return on Tuesday’s WWE NXT Show

Tuesday’s WWE NXT show at the Performance Center in Orlando, Florida featured Giulia making her surprise return to NXT.

Near the end of the Jordynne Grace vs. Jaida Parker match, Parker got into a confrontation with current NXT Women’s Champion Stephanie Vaquer at the commentary table. This led to a schuffle breaking out between the two and Vaquer accidentally hitting Grace. This then led to a brawl breaking out between all three and the referee calling for the bell. After some brawling, Giulia’s music played to interrupt and she ran out to help Giulia clear the ring of Grace and Jaida. This turned out to just be a ruse and Giulia attacked Vaquer laying her out with a headbutt and Northern Lights Bomb. Giulia then grabbed Vaquer’s title and held it up as she stood over Vaquer’s fallen body.

In a follow-up segment, Giulia was interviewed in the NXT parking lot about why she attacked Vaquer. Giulia responded issuing a rematch challenge to Vaquer for her NXT Women’s title at Stand & Deliver.

This was Giulia’s first appearance in NXT since this past March’s Roadblock 2025 show due to an undisclosed injury and visa issue.

As a result of their victories, Ruca and Dame join Zaria and Kelani Jordan as those who have officially qualified for the Vacant NXT Women’s North American Championship Six-Women Ladder match at Stand & Deliver 2025.

This match was setup over Vaquer announcing at the start of the show that she will reveal her hand picked opponent for her title match at Stand & Deliver. Following Giulia’s surprise return and attack on Vaquer during her brawl with Grace and Parker, Vaquer walked into NXT GM Ava’s office.
