WWE Digital Exclusive Confirms Giulia Injury Was An Angle

The initial concern surrounding Giulia following her loss on the October 2 episode of WWE SmackDown has been answered. Newly released footage strongly indicates that her slow exit from ringside was part of an ongoing storyline angle rather than a legitimate injury.

While fans inside the Ball Arena in Denver watched trainers assist Giulia away from the ring following her defeat to Blake Monroe, WWE’s post-show cameras captured a key confrontation behind the scenes that completely shifts the narrative.

Backstage Brawl Breaks Out In Locker Room Area

In footage posted across WWE’s social media channels after SmackDown went off the air, trainers were seen continuing to support Giulia as she walked through the loading dock and locker room corridor.

The situation took a dramatic turn when Monroe approached the recovering star to gloat about her victory:

Monroe’s Taunt: Monroe walked up to Giulia and mockingly stated: “Oh no. Giulia, I was so excited for our match and you were just sleeping.”
Giulia’s Retaliation: Refusing to let the taunt slide, Giulia immediately retaliated by blasting Monroe with a stiff headbutt, sending her crashing to the concrete floor.
Storyline Continuity: The backstage assault confirms that WWE kept the angle active well after the televised broadcast concluded, using digital platforms to sell the physical feud.

Match Context & Ongoing Feud

Monroe originally picked up the official pinfall victory over Giulia during the broadcast after tripping her on the top rope, sending her face-first into the turnbuckle pad before securing the three-count.

While ringside fan footage previously showed Giulia moving slowly with WWE camera operators positioned directly in front of the scene, this digital exclusive confirms that the physical aftermath was built to generate sympathy and extend their rivalry. Giulia may have suffered a loss on paper, but her backstage retaliation proves the war between the two stars is far from over.
