While the crowd chanted ‘yes’ in unison, Pat McAfee jokingly asked what the crowd was chanting and said they might be saying ‘yeah’.

Prior to being removed from the SmackDown women’s Survivor Series team, Aliyah scored her first win as a part of WWE’s main roster. She pinned Natalya in a six-woman tag. Before the show went to commercial break, Aliyah vomited in the ring.

The part where Aliyah threw up. Its probably because she was so excited she won. Glad she felt better later on🙏 pic.twitter.com/XwCxd0NeuM
