The NXT women’s division just got a major overhaul with the return of former champion Giulia. After weeks of hypothesis and stillness, she finally stepped back into the ring at an NXT live event in Crystal River, Florida. Her return was not just a moment of excitement for fans but a clear message that she’s back in the title hunt.
With Stand & Deliver just around the corner during WrestleMania weekend, Giulia’s comeback adds a new dimension to the women’s division. The timing could not be better. When many thought she might be out longer, she reminded everyone why she was once at the top.
The former champion, Giulia, is back in action
The rise of
Giulia in NXT began when she defeated Roxanne Perez in January to capture the NXT Women’s Championship. Her dominant presence immediately made her a key figure in the women’s roster. ,However her title reign did not last long.
She soon crossed paths with
Stephanie Vaquer, who held the North American Women’s Title at the time. Their clash felt unavoidable, and most fans believed it would headline Stand & Deliver. But
WWE took a different route, booking the highly anticipated match early for NXT Roadblock on network TV.
The result stunned the NXT universe. Giulia lost her championship to Vaquer, ending her reign sooner than expected. What followed was a deep confusion as Giulia disappeared from TV entirely. Rumors spread that she might be injured or dealing with other issues.

Some outlets reported that she was recovering from an undisclosed injury, while others mentioned minor visa complications. WWE made no official statement on the matter, leading to growing uncertainty about when or if Giulia would return.
All eyes are back on Giulia before Stand & Deliver
Giulia’s surprise appearance at a March 22 live event in Bartow, Florida gave fans a small taste of her return. She interrupted a segment involving Cora Jade, signaling that she hadn’t stepped away for good. But that night, she didn’t wrestle.
That changed at the recent live event in Crystal River. Giulia finally returned to in-ring competition and looked as sharp as ever. Her victory marked her first match since her title loss and firmly placed her back in the spotlight. “The Beautiful Madness” defeated Arianna Grace at an NXT live event in Crystal River, FL.
This marked Giulia’s first match since losing the NXT Women’s Championship to then NXT Women’s North American Champion Stephanie Vaquer at Roadblock last month.
The surprise title change took place due to Giulia reportedly suffering an undisclosed injury on top of having to deal with a minor visa issue.
Now, with Stand & Deliver just two weeks away, fans are hoping to see Giulia back in the title picture, possibly for a big rematch.
