This week on Monday Night Raw, The IIconics suffered a loss to the Riott Squad. The stipulation of the match meant the winners would receive a WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship opportunity. The losers, however, would be forced to disband.
WWE’s decision to split up the IIconics lies in management’s intention to push Peyton Royce as a singles star. It is important to note that although Royce is primed for a push, this does not mean that Billie Kay will be leaving the company or is being punished.
OBille Kay got beat up quickly on Raw Underground this week, which is likely a way to get her off television for a while as they rally behind Peyton Royce.
The pair commented on their disbanding following their Raw loss. The IIconics reflected on their longterm real-life friendship and history in the company together, starting in NXT. They acknowledged how it’s “scary” to think they won’t be by each other’s side going forward. Regardless, they stressed it won’t stop them from supporting one another.
