9 Best WWE Moments From Superstars Released On Black Thursday 2021
4. The IIconics Make History
First things first; 'you gotta be joking me' is the gift that keeps on giving. The day that interview stops being funny is a day that isn't happening anytime soon.
The IIconics divided opinion like few other teams in recent memory but it is difficult to argue that they worked as a duo. Splitting them up made even less sense than doing so did for Heavy Machinery, and the purgatory that both Billie and Peyton have been in ever since is proof if proof were needed. The Aussies had won the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships and lost them before returning to comedy in the lower echelons of the card; what was wrong with that? Could they not have just carried on doing that?
But no, they couldn't, so WWE broke them up and proceeded to do little with them outside of having Billie hand out resumes. The creative malaise of WWE beggars belief, it really does.
Still, The IIconics can look back at WrestleMania 35 and a tag title win that guaranteed their place in history. In winning the titles, Peyton became the first person born in the '90s to win a belt at WrestleMania, fulfilling the dreams of millions of people around the world in the process. They'll always have that.
Well, that and the promo. Poor Cathy Kelley.
