Aliyah can’t wait to get back into the ring.
Aliyah’s last match was a WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship loss to Damage CTRL on the September 12 episode of RAW. She has now confirmed she was injured in the match, sharing the news in a recent post on her Instagram account:
It’s been a month so here I go straight from the horses mouth:
I have to say my last match was probably one of my most favorite. And I would like to thank my tag partner Raquel and Damage CTRL And everyone involved. Yes I got injured mid match, however I have this overwhelming gratitude towards the incident because I felt like it pulled out a version of me that I never even knew existed. “Keep going!” I remember thinking. “I never get opportunities like this one” another voice in my head screamed. So idc I’m going to keep going and keep showing out. The emotions and energy I was feeling in the moment truly lit me up inside and I felt INDESTRUCTIBLE in that moment (yes, with an elevated first rib and ac sprain and all.)
I am very grateful to get to do what I do and I hope my passion and efforts transcended thru your television screen.
I don’t know what the future holds or when I’ll be back. But I just want to say thank you for everyone that has reached out. I really can’t wait to get back in the ring.
It’s unclear how long Aliyah will be sidelined, as the recovery time for each injury varies depending on how serious the strain is.
Aliyah’s tag team partner, Raquel Rodriguez, used a quote from the 2006 Jack Black film Nacho Libre to describe the bittersweet feeling she had after the title loss. Read more about how she’s looking forward to getting another shot at the titles at this link.
