Lash Legend is heading to Money in the Bank, but her qualifying victory has sparked frustration among some Giulia fans.

Legend secured her place in the 2026 Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match by defeating Giulia and Charlotte Flair in a Triple Threat on the September 25 episode of WWE SmackDown.

All three women had opportunities to win, with Giulia looking close to sealing the result after hitting Flair with the Arrivederci Knee and Northern Lights Bomb.

Legend stepped in before Giulia could capitalise, attacking her from behind and delivering the Lash Extension for the pinfall victory.

The win puts Legend alongside Jacy Jayne, Sol Ruca, Lola Vice and Roxanne Perez in the ladder match, leaving just one place available.

While it was a big night for Legend, some viewers took to social media to question WWE’s handling of Giulia.

@KingEmpire345 wrote, “Giulia should have won Do Better.”

@Hadokuen supported Legend’s success but expressed frustration over Giulia’s position, writing, “I’m happy for Lash, but Giulia needs to leave this company man.”

Others directed their criticism at Legend. @JyeTristianLFC posted, “I really don’t understand wwe’s fascination with Lash, absolutely terrible worker.”

@Danny_Sanjin added, “They have one of the best performers in Giulia but they prefer Trash Legend along her husband Trash Williams.”

Giulia will have an opportunity to bounce back next week, with Nick Aldis arranging a match against Blake Monroe on SmackDown.

For Legend, attention now turns to New Orleans and the chance to leave Money in the Bank with the briefcase.

Was Lash Legend the right choice to qualify, or should Giulia have won? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Giulia and Blake Monroe will go one-on-one NEXT WEEK on #SmackDown! 🫡@giulia0221g | @BlakeMonroeWWE pic.twitter.com/8lPzpXpIQx
