Popular Stardom faction disbands

Big changes seem to be in store for Stardom in 2024. Not only has Mariah May left for AEW and Maika defeated Suzu Suzuki to win the vacant World of Stardom Championship but Donna Del Mondo’s leader, Giulia, has announced that the faction has disbanded.

“I have something to say,” said Giulia calling faction members Mai Sakurai, Maika and Thekla into the ring at the Stardom Gate event.

Giulia explained the Donna Del Mondo founders, herself, Maika and Syuri vowed in 2020 to make it to the top of Stardom together.

“From the moment Maika wore the red belt in Ryogoku that vow was fulfilled,” said Giulia.

Giulia, Syuri and now Maika have all been the World of Stardom Champion.

Donna Del Mondo, it has been an eventful four years but today we are disbanding,” announced Giulia to a stunned crowd.

Giulia went on to compliment Maika for her perseverance and praised Mai Sakurai and Thekla for evolving and growing.

“I want to go back to being the lone wolf I was when I first came to Stardom. That’s my honest feeling,” continued Giulia.

Giulia then passed the microphone to the other members to have their say.

What is worthy of noting is that Thekla announced that she is taking some time off from Stardom.

“I have got a lot to think about right now. My body is at its limit. So, I am going to be taking a little break but when I come back to this Stardom ring I will be stronger than ever. At that time, we might become rivals. Either way, I look forward to working with you in the future,” said Thekla to Giulia as the two hugged.

Mai Sakurai said even though Donna Del Mondo is no more she will still “follow” Giulia.

“I am sure the wrestlers involved in DDM will continue to grow. What I want to say is that even though we have disbanded it doesn’t mean each of us will be disappearing from the wrestling world. You will have to keep your eyes on them…We are the Women of the World! Arrivederci!” concluded Giulia.

Besides the current roster and Syuri who went on to form God’s Eye, Himeka, Natsupoi and Mirai were also part of the Donna Del Mondo faction.

During their short time together members of Donna Del Mondo collectively won 13 championships in Stardom in total including, as mentioned above, Giulia, Syuri and Maika each becoming World of Stardom Champion.

In recent months rumours have been swirling around Giulia. It is thought that when her contract with Stardom ends in March that she might be heading to the WWE.
