With Bayley now a member of Raw, the spot of No. 1 contender to Asuka’s NXT Women’s Championship is wide open. That is why the matchup between Liv Morgan and Aliyah was so important, as both rising Superstars look to make a name for themselves.

Aliyah certainly put forth a strong showing, but she could not keep up with Liv Morgan’s energetic attack, which culminated in a spinning kick for the pinfall.
