Giulia is set to challenge Roxanne Perez for the NXT Women's Title when NXT premieres on CW Network on October 1st.
Giulia joined WWE/NXT as a highly touted free agent thanks to her work in Japan.
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Shawn Michaels commented on Giulia's upcoming bout.
“A big one, and I think obviously a great deal of that is gonna come to fruition tomorrow night in Chicago. I think everybody has been waiting with bated breath for her to come. There were probably two or three PLEs where people thought she was coming in, and everybody was anticipating her arrival. It's finally here, and now for the first time, certainly, in an NXT ring, the world is gonna get to see Giulia perform on an extremely big stage. I think she’s got her work cut out for her because Roxanne Perez right now is running on all cylinders, and she’s doing a great job. I think she’s feeling great about being the NXT Women’s Champion. I think she’s doing incredible work right now, so it’s gonna be a match for the ages. I’m looking forward to seeing that one," he said.
Giulia did defeat Chelsea Green on the September 10th episode of NXT.
