WWE SmackDown: 3 biggest questions from this week’s episode (February 05, 2019)

#1 Why were The IIconics a part of the tag team match?

The IIconics did not make much of an impression

At the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view, the first WWE Women's Tag Team Champions will be crowned inside the eponymous match. Last night, the last tag team who would be a part of the match were chosen through a match.

Surprisingly, the match was a triple threat match involving Naomi and Carmella, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville, and The IIconics.

Why were The IIconics made a part of the match when their inclusion into the Elimination Chamber match was already announced without them doing battle? If the match was set up to pick the last team for the championship match, then it was obvious The IIconics wouldn’t have won as they are already in that match.

The IIconics remained largely unimpressive in the match, which basically built on the heat between Naomi and Mandy Rose. Rose got the pin over Naomi to pick up the win for her team which will progress to the Elimination Chamber match, along with the losers The IIconics.

Could WWE not have done without including The IIconics in the match, or did they finally realize that they need to remind fans that the team also exists? After all, both women were single-handedly beaten by Charlotte Flair not too long ago.
