Aliyah

Aliyah, is a Canadian professional wrestler, who used to perform on WWE’s black and gold brand – NXT. The Superstar was recently drafted to Smackdown during the 2021 WWE Draft. But the draft will come into effect only after WWE Crown Jewel, so we can expect the new face to showup on the Blue brand, sometime later this month.

Even without any prior experience, Aliyah toiled hard in WWE and has established herself as a top-notch professional wrestler. Undoubtedly, she was one of the most deserving performers to get called up from the former black and gold brand to the main roster.

Several Superstars from the world of professional wrestling took to Twitter to congratulate her on the call-up. The news of Aliyah being drafted to the Blue brand was not announced during the show, but was announced during the post-show, Talking Smack.

“It feels great. And to anyone out there that’s watching, I just want to let you know — just keep going. If you have a goal, if you have a plan, if you have a dream in mind, just keep going, keep pushing. If nobody else believes in you, well, guess what? You better believe in you,” she mentioned as soon as the news was broken to her.

Several WWE Superstars – Liv Morgan, Zelina Vega, Nikki A.S.H. and Indi Hartwell among others, took to Twitter to welcome the newest member on the Smackdown roster. The former member of the Robert Stone Brand herself mentioned, “Feeling the love. SmackDown is about to get Boujeé.”
