>Giulia is loyal to Rossy Ogawa. Following his release from Stardom this week, Ogawa announced his intention to start a new promotion. The current NJPW Strong Women's Champion plans on being part of it, at least, initially. While she is expected to land in WWE eventually, Giulia is delaying her start to help Ogawa kick off his new company. Our own Dave Meltzer addressed the situation with Ogawa, Giulia, and Bushiroad on the latest episode of Wrestling Observer Radio.
>"The reason that (Giulia) is delaying her WWE start is so she can, at least, be there to kick off the promotion for a while and get the promotion going and then she is going to end up with WWE at some point. But when WWE was interested in her she basically gave her word she would help wh(Ogawa) started out and that's what she's going to do. She's actually postponing her WWE debut because she had given her word."
>Bushiroad announced on Sunday that Ogawa had been fired from the promotion. They also accused him of attempting to poach talent for his new company. Ogawa would later deny those accusations in an interview with Tokyo Sports. He confirmed his intention to start a new promotion during the same interview. In a Subscriber Exclusive story posted this weekend, Meltzer detailed what led to Ogawa's departure from Stardom. "The story dates back about nine months when Bushiroad execs started overruling Ogawa to the dismay of both himself and talent and some of the more outlandish booking decisions," Meltzer wrote.
