Update on Giulia’s Injury Status Following US Title Match on SmackDown

Women’s United States Champion Giulia was apparently “banged up” following her match against Tiffany Stratton this past Friday on SmackDown.

In a now-deleted Instagram post, Giulia’s trainer Matthew Ennis revealed that she was in a lot of pain after the match, leading them to pivot from the plans they had for the training session.

However, he didn’t mention any specific injury that the wrestler may have suffered during the title match.

“Giulia came into her session today very banged up from her [match] last Friday on SmackDown,” he said. “Normally, this would be our full lower body day, but today was not a good day for that because she was in so much pain. Low back pain, knee pain, hip pain, shoulders, you name it. So instead of sticking to a rigid plan, we adapted today on the fly, and the goal is just simply to have her walk out of the gym feeling better. Thankfully, through a full-body activation, mobility, stretching circuit, we were able to achieve that goal. And now we’ll be more prepared to push harder tomorrow, and that’s a big thing for pro wrestlers—depending on how your body feels, you may need to adjust the workout for the day.” [Quote via Wrestling Observer]

Giulia retained the Women’s United States Championship against Tiffany Stratton, capitalizing on a distraction caused by Kiana James when the former Women’s Champion went for the Prettiest Moonsault Ever. Giulia got her knees up and then rolled up Stratton to secure a pinfall victory. It’s unclear whether the two will have a rematch at WrestleMania 42.

Tiffany recently commented on the speculations of her challenging The Beautiful Madness for the title at The Show of Shows. You can check out her comments HERE.
