History YMMV / BillieKay

* AuthorsSavingThrow:
** Much criticism was made over how poorly she was used after being signed. Despite being ready to go in the ring, she was used as a {{Jobber}} for over a year. In 2016 she was finally given a featured role in the division and was treated as a legitimate title contender.
** The Riott Squad and Absolution being called up before the [=IIconics=] didn't sit well with fans. Only a couple of months later, the duo were called up to Smackdown as well.

* BrokenBase: While the [=IIconics=] are seen as a good tag team, and their ring skills aren't in question - the prissy, girly antics were divisive as soon as they showed up on NXT. Half the base likes them, feeling the team plays the characters well. Others wish for something more original - see TheyCopiedItNowItSucks below.

* LesYay: She and Peyton Royce seem to have a very close partnership, which stems from the two having gone to school together in real life.

** "You gotta be ''JOKING'' me!" Debuting in a post-elimination ''Royal Rumble 2019'' interview, her delivery of the line (which made interviewer Cathy Kelley and Peyton [[{{Corpsing}} corpse]] instantaneously) made it catch on like wildfire, turning a one-off line into her new CatchPhrase.

** Her strange grammar choices; she once asked Kelley if she "went to journalism" (meaning journalism ''school''), and described the name of the official wrestling [[{{Reddit}} subreddit]] (r/[=SquaredCircle=]) as [[https://www.cameo.com/v/9kxzTm86o "not even a real Internet"]].

* MemeticMutation: Many .gifs have been made of her rolling her eyes or looking disdainful of something.
** Her meltdown in an interview following her and Peyton being eliminated from the 2019 Royal Rumble, which bred the quotable lines "Did you go to journalism for that?" and "You gotta be ''JOKING'' me!" (which made both the interviewer and Peyton [[{{Corpsing}} corpse]] instantaneously), which has become her de-facto {{catchphrase}} of sorts.

* InternetBackdraft: When Mandy Rose, Sonya Deville and Wrestling/TheRiottSquad (Ruby Riott, Wrestling/LivMorgan and Sarah Logan) were all suddenly called up to the main roster, cue loads of fans complaining that the Iconic Duo were overlooked.

** When asked if the IIconics were ready for the main roster, Triple H commented that they were almost there. The two got breast implants shortly after, and then debuted on the main roster - leading to many fans joking that was what he was referring to.

* UnnecessaryMakeover: Defied by Billie herself. When she got her second breast enhancement surgery, she responded to criticisms by saying that the surgery was for herself.

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: In the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVHu1qDcclM Iconic or Not?]] video, when a picture of puppies comes up the two end up {{Squee}}ing incoherently for thirty seconds.

* CounterpartComparison: With her and Peyton being childhood friends who trained together and now wrestle as a tag team, they are sometimes referred to as a female Edge & Christian.

* HilariousInHindsight: Ember Moon debuting against Billie Kay is hilarious considering her ''SHIMMER'' debut was also against the same woman - with the face/heel roles reversed.

* TheyCopiedItSoItSucks: Her team with Peyton has attracted some criticism for essentially being an Australian version of Wrestling/LayCool, though of course time will tell if they can transcend this.
