In a milestone victory since her WWE departure, former WWE star Nhooph Al-Areebi, known to fans as Aliyah, has captured her first championship on the independent circuit. This title win comes nearly two months after her release from WWE in September 2023, which followed a year-long absence from in-ring appearances for the promotion.
Since parting ways with WWE, Al-Areebi has reignited her wrestling career, taking to the independent scene where she recently achieved a new professional high. On November 3, Al-Areebi proudly shared a celebratory Instagram post showcasing her latest achievement as the newly crowned Destiny Women’s Champion for Destiny Pro Wrestling.
The caption read: “Having fun and kicking �� #NewChamp ������ #AndNew @destinyworldwrestling.”
The former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion, who previously held the titles alongside Raquel Rodriguez, has added singles gold to her resume in the Canadian wrestling circuit.
In a high-stakes match on Sunday, Al-Areebi defeated National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) star Tiffany Nieves to capture the Destiny Women’s Championship in Canada’s Destiny World Wrestling (DWW) promotion. The victory marks a significant milestone for Al-Areebi, who has quickly established herself as a formidable contender on the independent wrestling scene following her WWE departure.
Nieves had held the Destiny Women’s Championship since August 17, when she won a grueling tournament final against Zoey Skye to claim the then-vacant title. Her reign, however, was cut short as Al-Areebi clinched the championship in a decisive performance, further solidifying her comeback and making a strong statement to wrestling fans and promoters alike.
Furthermore, a month back WWE star Aliyah turned heads with a striking new look and a bold outfit choice that quickly caught the attention of her followers. Taking to her X account, the Canadian wrestler showcased her latest style, revealing a fresh hair color and an eye-catching outfit that fans have been buzzing about. Aliyah’s new hair color marks a noticeable transformation, adding to the excitement surrounding her recent appearance. In one of her posts, she even offered fans a closer look at her outfit, sharing intriguing details that highlight her evolving personal style.
She wrote, "Since everyone is obsessed with the outfit���� Sweater vest: Dolls kill, Under top: Aritzia, Shorts: lululemon, Shoes: Steve Madden, Bag: Louis Vuitton."
Nonetheless, with this victory, Al-Areebi’s career post-WWE continues to gain momentum as she looks to add to her championship legacy and inspire fans in her home country of Canada and beyond.
