I love the fact that Aliyah and Vanessa Borne have formed a very cohesive team called 'The Highers'. They believe that they're a step above the 'Lowers' which is people like you and me. Aliyah has been in developmental for far too long and I think that this could potentially be the gimmick that eventually helps her break out and succeed.
She went up against Mia Yim, who's become a favorite of the NXT Universe. The match was a good one and the suicide dive from Yim on both Aliyah and Borne was pretty cool. What was even cooler is Yim going up to the commentary position and challenging Shayna Baszler following her big win.

Something that made me chuckle is Nigel McGuinness quoting lines from the song 'One Vision' by Queen, and Beth Phoenix thinking that he was reciting poetry. Well, to many around the world, Queen's music is poetry.
