The 29-year-old signed with World Wrestling Entertainment in 2015 and started performing for the company's developmental brand, NXT. Her main roster call-up came after several years as she was drafted to SmackDown in 2021 following which the star won the Women's Tag Team Championship with Raquel Rodriguez. However, the Canadian was released from her WWE contract in September 2023.

A fan recently took to Twitter to post a video of a backstage promo featuring Aliyah, stating that they believed it was one of the worst performances on the mic.

Wrestling veteran Konnan said he didn't like Aliyah's work in WWE

During a recent edition of Keepin It 100, Konnan said that he believes Aliyah must have done something wrong which led to her WWE release in September 2023.

The veteran also mentioned that he believed the 29-year-old's work was not good in the Stamford-based promotion.

"Yeah, she was hot, but like Disco [Inferno] says they have a lot of hot girls, especially in NXT waiting to come up. She must've done something where they didn't see anything in her. My problem with her was that her work was not that good, okay? And, she was like almost anorexic skinny. I was like this girl needs a steak or a protein drink or both."

Many fans want to see Aliyah again in World Wrestling Entertainment soon. It remains to be seen if the Stamford-based promotion will sign the star again in the future.
