SmackDown Live certainly had a few hit and miss moments
#3 Worst: The IIconics

I just think that they're not ready for the big time on SmackDown Live
There was a lot that was wrong with the opening segment. Even though the WWE Universe was hot for Becky Lynch, it was strange to see her competing in a t-shirt and jeans, and she felt a little restrained in her movement.

But when the IIconics came into the picture, I feel that the segment reached its lowest. The two of them were fed lines that did not connect with the crowd at all, really. And this could be attributed both to the delivery and the scripting.
Maybe a longer stint in NXT would have solved the problem for the twosome. I just thought this week, they disappointed.
Maybe they just need more screen time and more opportunities to gain confidence and own the screen like the legends that they were down in NXT.
