8 Things WWE subtly told us on RAW: Drew McIntyre calls out SmackDown star as next opponent, Former Champions return after 6 months away

#7. An IIconic return to the title picture

Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross were interrupted by The IIconics Peyton Royce and Billie Kay - who made their return to WWE after six months away. The last time we saw them was at the end of October and it was post their Tag Team title reign before they were out of action.

After a well-deserved rest, the two Superstars who won the Tag Team titles at WrestleMania 35 went on to challenge the team that won them at WrestleMania 36. It led to a non-title match, where Royce and Kay managed to pin the Champions and secure a future title shot.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

As it turns out, that title shot will be next week as Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross will defend the Women's Tag Team Championships against The IIconics. It's going to be fun to watch and it'll be interesting to see what WWE's decision is. They could easily put the titles on Royce and Kay, but Bliss and Cross had just won it back, so it doesn't make sense to have a short title reign.
