Giulia wins WWE SmackDown title after overcoming Chelsea Green in a dramatic showdown on Friday night, regaining the WWE Women’s United States Championship at the event. The highly anticipated clash, held during WWE SmackDown, brought an end to Chelsea Green’s 57-day title run as Giulia reclaimed her status in the women’s division.
How the Title Match Was Set Up
The setup for the main event began earlier in the evening when Nick Aldis intervened to ensure Chelsea Green would defend her championship. Green appeared visibly shaken and emotional, reportedly struggling to focus after the end of the popular show Stranger Things, which had left her unable to warm up or prepare fully for her match. Despite her hesitation, Aldis made it clear that Green would forfeit the championship if she refused to compete, forcing her into the ring.

The contest saw momentum swinging on both sides, but Giulia ultimately seized control late in the bout. After executing a powerful suplex followed by a decisive splash, Giulia managed to pin Chelsea Green and secure the three-count, officially recapturing the WWE Women’s United States Championship for the second time in her career.
