6. The Fashion Files: Week 6

'Dumb On Arrival' was the subtitle of yet another sensational 'Fashion Files', which can now comfortably stake it's claim as the weekly highlight of SmackDown Live!

For nearly two months, Fandango and Tyler Breeze have been a delight as clueless cops in their makeshift office, littered with in-jokes and sight gags that require repeat viewings to enjoy the efforts that serve as a backdrop to the silliness.

'There's no boys and no lab' and 'tasting the cologne for prints' were highlights from the ludicrous dialogue between the pair shortly before The New Day switched from luminous to black and white as they entered the 'Fashion Police Department'.

'Listen Big E, if that's even your real initial', exclaimed Fandango as he attempted to knock back The New Day's offer of a romper suit as bribery for help in their war with The Usos. Breeze and Fandango then communicated only through thought, adding yet more and more to the gag for upcoming adventures.

As New Day left the office completely bewildered, the internal monologues of the Fashion Police sang 'New...Case Rocks' to themselves as the camera panned away. That the sound of an arena chanting along could then be heard shows just how big a success the duo have made of this provisionally one-note joke.
