The Iconics pick up an important victory.

The Iconics have been Smackdown Live's underdog heels for a long time now, and while your options about Billie Kay and Peyton Royce may be largely negative due to their lack of in-ring ability and annoying personas which make them in the eyes of many-divas. But you can't help but give them some props for embracing the ridiculousness of their personas in an age of excellent wrestlers, as their annoying heel personas might have helped them stand out from the pack.

And this week on Smackdown Live Royce faced Naomi in a singles match that might not have been good, but it did do the job. The result was Royce actually getting a win over a former Women's Champion, and while Naomi definitely deserves better WWE could get her embroiled in a feud with any one of the talented superstars waiting for a spot in the blue brand's women's division. And The Iconics win should take them to a higher spot on Smackdown live as they have a lot of potential in the character department.
