Nhooph Al-Areebi (born November 23, 1994) is a Canadian professional wrestler currently signed to WWE.She began her career in her teens, apparently training in secret without her conservative family knowing. She made her debut in 2013 under the name Jasmin Areebi — alternating between that and just Jasmin. It didn't take long for WWE to come calling, and she was signed in 2015 when she was just nineteen years old. After competing on live events for a while under her indies name, she became christened Aliyah.Aliyah made her debut in a #1 contender's battle royal in 2016, and then made her singles debut a couple of months later against Carmella. She has been featured on NXT's documentary series Breaking Ground.She has the distinction of being the first female talent in WWE to be of Arab descent (Syrian and Iraqi).

This was repeated when she teamed up with Lacey Evans. With Lacey being the Boisterous Bruiser an Action Fashionista (as well as being the greener of the two) she filled the Performer slot, while Aliyah again portrayed the Technician.

Good Is Not Dumb: In her Smackdown match against Natalya, the latter gave her a nasty beatdown before the match even began, with the referee initially declaring she was unfit to compete. Aliyah appealed that she would still have the match, and smartly rolled up Natalya while the bell was still ringing. Thus she won the match in a matter of seconds!

Older Than They Look: Upon being called up to the main roster, she was still presented as The Cutie the way she had been when she first showed up in NXT when she was nineteen. As that was eight years ago, she was now twenty-seven, but still looked like a nineteen-year-old.

Kid-Appeal Character: The Cat's Meow initially seemed this way — brightly coloured outfits, perky entrance theme and she already is The Cutie. In one entrance she singled out a little girl holding up a sign for her. But although she kept the name, she swapped the persona out for an arrogant mean girl.

Bullying a Dragon: Towards Xia Li on the November 13th 2019 edition of NXT. You'd think she'd know better than to actively try to piss Xia off after getting beaten by her in a Squash Match two months prior, but evidently not; in the end she got squashed again and even ate a kick to the face for her troubles.

Replaced the Theme Tune
 Aliyah (Wrestling) / int_bcc5c9a5
comment
Replaced the Theme Tune: As is standard with wrestlers trying out new gimmicks, but she ended up cycling through three very different themes in the space of about a year. The first was "Did You Find It?", a techno dance track that would have gone with her Belly Dancer gimmick. The second was "Fatal Fantasy", a slower hip hop track with strong drums to fit a heel. The third "The Cat's Meow" is an upbeat dance theme to fit a perky face, though being that it was the first specifically made by CFO$ for her, this might actually stick.

Liv Morgan meanwhile is the greener wrestler but the former cheerleader with a lot of character and personality. This was repeated when she teamed up with Lacey Evans. With Lacey being the Boisterous Bruiser an Action Fashionista (as well as being the greener of the two) she filled the Performer slot, while Aliyah again portrayed the Technician.
