Biography

Street Profits are an American professional wrestling tag team consisting of Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford. They are signed to WWE, and perform on the Raw brand, where they are the current Raw Tag Team Champions in their first reign.

History

WWE

NXT (2016–2019)

The team of Angelo Dawkins and Kenneth Crawford debuted on the March 16, 2016 episode of NXT, (taped on January 21), where they were defeated by The Hype Bros. The team would continue to work at house shows.

On the July 12, 2017 episode of NXT, Crawford (now renamed Montez Ford) and Dawkins started appearing in weekly vignettes as The Street Profits. On the August 9 episode of NXT, they made their return by defeating The Metro Brothers. The Street Profits would go on a winning streak, defeating the likes of The Ealy Twins, Riddick Moss and Tino Sabbatelli, and local wrestlers. On January 17, 2018, Street Profits suffered their first loss to The Authors of Pain (AOP)(Akam and Rezar), failing to earn a NXT Tag Team Championship match at NXT TakeOver: Philadelphia. Later on, they entered the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic, where they would defeat Heavy Machinery in the first round, but were eliminated by AOP in the semifinals. The Street Profits once again entered the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic in 2019, but were defeated by Moustache Mountain in the first round.

On the May 1, 2019 episode of NXT, The Viking Raiders (Erik and Ivar) vacated the NXT Tag Team Championship, but were immediately challenged by Street Profits. The match ended in a disqualification after The Forgotten Sons and Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch got involved. A four-way tag team ladder match for the NXT Tag Team Championship was later scheduled for NXT TakeOver: XXV between Street Profits, Lorcan and Burch, The Forgotten Sons, and The Undisputed Era (Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish). At NXT TakeOver: XXV, they won the NXT Tag Team Championship for the first time. On the July 10 episode of NXT, Street Profits made their first successful title defense against Lorcan and Burch, but on the August 15 tapings of NXT, they would lose the NXT Tag Team Championship to O'Reilly and Fish.

Raw (2019–present)

Starting on July 1, The Street Profits started appearing on WWE Raw doing various backstage segments, a move that was said to be done in order to appeal to younger audiences. It was clarified by Dave Meltzer that the team were still NXT wrestlers and that this was not an official move to Raw. On October 11, during the WWE Draft, the Street Profits were drafted to Raw, officially bringing them to the brand. On the October 21 edition of Raw, the Street Profits defeated Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson in their debut match. At Survivor Series, the Street Profits competed in a 10-team Interbrand Tag Team Battle Royal where they were the last team eliminated by the eventual winners, Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode. At Starrcade, and with Ric Flair in their corner, the Street Profits would defeat Gallows and Anderson.

On the December 9 episode of Raw, the Street Profits answered an open challenge for a title bout issued by Raw Tag Team Champions The Viking Raiders, where The Viking Raiders retained. Four weeks later, the Street Profits were given another shot at the Viking Raiders' tag team titles, this time in a triple threat match that also involved Gallows and Anderson where The Viking Raiders retained once again. On the February 17, 2020 episode of Raw, after Kevin Owens and The Viking Raiders defeated Murphy and AOP via disqualification due to Seth Rollins' interference, the Street Profits came out and aided Owens and The Viking Raiders by attacking Murphy and AOP while Rollins retreated. Later, the Street Profits were scheduled to challenge Rollins and Murphy for the Raw Tag Team Championship at Super ShowDown, where they would be unsuccessful. On the March 2 episode of Raw, the Street Profits were given a final opportunity "Last Chance Match" rematch, where, with the help of Kevin Owens, they would go on to win the Raw Tag Team Championship. Later backstage, Rollins and Murphy challenged them to a rematch for the titles at Elimination Chamber, where the Street Profits retained the titles. They retained their titles again by defeating Angel Garza and Austin Theory on night two of Wrestlemania 36. On the May 4 episode of 'Raw' they lost in a non title match to the Viking Raiders. In the following weeks, The Street Profits would feud with The Viking Raiders as they faced each other in several competitions such as a game of basketball, axe-throwing, golf, bowling, and a decathlon which was later dubbed as the "Anything You Can Do, We Can Do Better" series. The series would end with a 3-3 tie between the Street Profits and The Viking Raiders. At Backlash, the Street Profits were set to face the Viking Raiders, but the match did not start due to them brawling outside the building, being accosted by Akira Tozawa and a group of ninjas, and ending up in a dumpster. On the June 22 episode of Raw, The Street Profits successfully defended their Tag Team Titles against The Viking Raiders thus ending the feud.

Evolve (2018–2019)

On October 28, 2018, the Street Profits made their first appearance at Evolve 114, winning the Evolve Tag Team Championship by defeating The Doom Patrol. They would successfully defend the titles against the likes of The WorkHorsemen, AR Fox and Leon Ruff, Austin Theory and Harlem Bravado, and The Skulk. At Evolve 123, they lost the titles to The Unwanted. On March 16, 2019, they made their final Evolve appearance as a tag team at Evolve 124, teaming with Velveteen Dream to defeat The Unwanted in a six-man tag team match.
