Back in the mid-2010's, Tyler Breeze and Fandango very much felt like they were on the cusp of being sent packing by World Wrestling Entertainment.

The singles stars weren't really being used all that much after initially making a little bit of a splash on NXT and the main roster, respectively. But Vince McMahon still felt the two could do a job on his product, and eventually threw them together as the unit that would eventually become known as Breezango.

And instead of simply becoming yet another duo relegated to the role of jobbers to the more established squads in town, 'Dango and Breeze seemingly made it their mission to steal the blue show each and every week.

In their Fashion Police personas, the twosome had the time of their lives taking the p*ss out of police procedural shows with their mission to bring fashion justice to the world. And while this unexpected wave of popularity still couldn't pave the way for main roster title glory for the two, it definitely established both performers as talents who could knock it out of the park when given the freedom to do so.

Had another team tried to get over the weekly investigations into crimes against fashion, there's a solid chance the entire direction would've been dropped in next to no time at all. But in Breezango's hands, their outrageous investigations led to them becoming one of the cult heroes of the SmackDown Live era.
