There's no way anyone could've predicted that Aliyah would last as long as she did. SmackDown's newbie went approx 20 minutes before being tossed over the top by elimination champ Charlotte Flair (who threw out five different wrestlers this year).

Aliyah also didn't interact with Natalya at all, which felt like a missed opportunity after recent angles between the pair.
