With this year’s WrestleMania being dubbed the biggest of all time, fans are looking forward to one heck of a weekend. And what could potentially embellish the aforementioned tagline is the reported arrival of former Stardom sensation, Giulia. She left the Japanese promotion after her contract expired at the end of March.

Now, as per Tokyo Sports, the 30-year-old has boarded a plane to the United States. That’s where it gets interesting. The report added that Giulia was vague in her speech throughout and jocularly claimed she’s going to settle in the Himalayas. Despite the London-born wrestler being reticent, the on-site reporter could deduce that she had a large bag while being at the airport.

It comes on the heels of WWE’s long-standing interest in her. Back in November, it was first broached that WWE was attempting to court her. But during that time, she was under a contract with Bushiroad’s subsidiary, Stardom. Eventually, that didn’t come to fruition. However, it’s more than likely that the Italian-English wrestler would pursue a career at WWE with Triple H spearheading the creative department.

Giulia will enjoy some company in the form of Damage CTRL’s Iyo Sky and Kairi Sane among many other former colleagues. Last month, she yearned facing Mercedes Mone before dropping the NJPW Strong Women’s title. However, that doesn’t seem realistic at this point. The free agent is expected to be in Philadelphia soon, the host city of WrestleMania XL.

Is Steve Austin also making a trip to WrestleMania XL?

The eyes of the pro wrestling fraternity are on Cody Rhodes‘ quest to finish his story with Roman Reigns. For that to happen, The American Nightmare first needs to ensure his match on Sunday doesn’t operate under Bloodline rules.

With Seth Rollins by his side, they’re set to battle The Tribal Chief and his cousin, The Rock on Saturday. However, the babyfaces seem to be in deep waters. Despite his back against the wall, Cody seems to have figured out what he needs to do in case it’s sudden death in title match with Reigns.

Recently, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin posted a video on social media showing that someone had sent him Easter eggs in a beer basket which were found in the back of his truck. It’s widely speculated that it could be an invite that would potentially drive The Texas Rattlesnake to WrestleMania.
