Although the returned creature is an attacking creature, it was never declared as an attacking creature. This means that abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks won't trigger when it enters the battlefield attacking.

2021-03-19wotc

While resolving Alesha's triggered ability, you can't pay the cost multiple times to return more than one creature card.

2021-03-19wotc

Alesha's triggered ability checks the card's power only in your graveyard. The creature will still be tapped and attacking if its power is greater than 2 after it's on the battlefield.
