The IIconics Split Up Due To RAW Stipulation, New #1 Contenders Named For Nia Jax And Shayna Baszler
The IIconics are no more as a tag team.
Tonight's live WWE RAW episode saw Liv Morgan and Ruby Riott defeat Peyton Royce and Billie Kay in tag team action.
Per the stipulations, The IIconics were forced to disband, while The Riott Squad was named the new #1 contenders to WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler.
There's no word yet on when The Riott Squad vs. Baszler and Jax for the titles will happen, but it could come on September 27 at the WWE Clash of Champions pay-per-view. There's also no word yet on what WWE has planned for Royce and Jax as singles wrestlers, but it's been reported that WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon sees Royce as a big singles star.
Stay tuned for updates on Kay, Royce and The Riott Squad. Below are a few shots of tonight's RAW match at The ThunderDome from the Amway Center in Orlando, FL:
