WWE Backlash 2017 Results: Best and Worst Moments
By Bryan Heaton
Best: Tyler Breeze, Master of Disguise
My only complaint about the SmackDown Tag Team Championship match? Not enough costume changes.
It’s no secret that the Fashion Police gimmick has breathed life into the once random pairing of Tyler Breeze and Fandango. Over the past few weeks, the Fashion Files segments have been highly entertaining. With Breeze “in too deep” with his undercover work, working the match as the janitor would have been more than enough to be a great moment.
But Breeze had one more trick up his sleeve. After his mop was broken and he was sent out of the ring, he did a quick costume change on the floor. When he took his place back in the corner, it was Grandma Breeze – cane and all.
It was just the right amount of comedy for the match. The Usos are all business, and they don’t have time for these silly games. But underneath the levity, Breeze and Dango are more than capable of hanging with the champs.
It worked for the match, too – whenever the Usos got rid of a disguised Breeze, Fandango came in as a change of pace. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to win the match and the championships. But the Fashion Police seem to be here to stay, which is a great thing for the SmackDown Live Tag Team Division.
