Giulia has made a remarkable return to the top of the WWE as she clinched the Women’s United States Championship for the second time by defeating Chelsea Green on the January 2, 2026 episode of SmackDown. The match showcased a series of intense exchanges, including powerful strikes and high-flying maneuvers.
During the face-off, Green initially took control of the bout by executing a clothesline followed by a kick to the head, leading to a near fall. However, Giulia quickly countered with a headbutt, showcasing her resilience. The action escalated with Green attempting her signature move, the Unpretty Her, but Giulia’s timely defense allowed her to regain momentum. Despite Green’s offensive efforts, including the Rough Rider, distractions played a pivotal role in the outcome. With assistance from Kiana, who dealt with interference from Giulia’s ally, Fyre, the match swung back in Giulia’s favor.
In a dramatic finish, Giulia executed a dazzling double underhook suplex from the top rope, followed by a northern lights bomb, securing the pinfall victory and reclaiming her championship title. Fans celebrated her triumphant moment as Giulia proved her determination and skill in the ring once again.
This victory not only cements Giulia’s status as a top competitor in the women’s division but also adds another chapter to her exciting rivalry with Chelsea Green, who previously claimed the title from her back on November 7, 2025. The dynamic between these two athletes promises to keep fans on the edge of their seats as they look forward to potential future encounters. Giulia’s win sends a positive message of resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity, inspiring fans everywhere.
