Rhea Ripley Vacates the WWE Women’s Championship, Giulia Should Be Next in Line
It might be an unpopular opinion among WWE fans, but if Rhea Ripley is forced to vacate the WWE Women’s Championship due to injury, there is one superstar who should immediately be elevated into the title picture: Giulia.
Since arriving in WWE, Giulia has been presented as a major star with all the tools needed to become a cornerstone of the women’s division. While her journey on the main roster has had its ups and downs, recent developments suggest that WWE may finally be positioning her for a breakthrough moment.
“The Beautiful Madness” recently shocked fans by turning on Kiana James, officially igniting what could become one of the most personal rivalries in the women’s division. The storyline has already generated intrigue, and Giulia’s character work has shown significant growth. More importantly, her confidence on the microphone has improved dramatically.
One of the biggest concerns surrounding Giulia when she first arrived in WWE was her ability to connect with audiences through promos. However, since aligning with Kiana James, her English-speaking skills have noticeably improved. Recent promos have demonstrated greater confidence, clearer delivery, and a stronger connection with the WWE Universe. It is becoming increasingly evident that Giulia is growing more comfortable in her role, and fans are beginning to see the complete package emerge.
Unfortunately, her reign as Women’s United States Champion never fully provided the momentum many expected. While the championship helped establish her presence, it failed to elevate her to the level of stardom that many believed was inevitable when she signed with WWE. The title run felt more like a stepping stone than a defining chapter.
That is exactly why a move into the world title scene makes so much sense.
If Ripley is unable to continue as champion, WWE would need a fresh face capable of bringing excitement to the division. Giulia checks every box. She possesses international star power, in-ring excellence, charisma, and an aura that immediately captures attention whenever she appears on screen.
Imagine the scenario: Giulia enters a championship qualifier, battles through the competition, and earns the opportunity to face the Queen of the Ring winner at SummerSlam. The match itself would already feel like a star-making opportunity, but the real magic would come if WWE pulled the trigger and crowned Giulia as the new WWE Women’s Champion.
A victory on one of WWE’s biggest stages would instantly transform her career. It would validate the hype that surrounded her arrival, establish her as a top-tier superstar, and inject fresh energy into the championship picture.
WWE has spent years building new stars within the women’s division, and moments like these are how true main-event players are created. Giulia has the talent, the presence, and the momentum to seize that opportunity.
If the championship becomes vacant, WWE should not simply look for a safe option. They should look toward the future.
And that future could very well belong to Giulia.
