This guy.
He can talk, he can work, he looks great, he's one half of WWE's current reality show project with his wife.
And he's stuck with 533 lbs. of dead weight, Bobby Lashley and Angelo Dawkins. I don't know how much B-Fab weighs, but unless she's a good heel manager, she can stick with the other two.
Montez could be a big star, but he's 33. Time to get f***ing moving on that, why is this guy stuck in this done-everything tag team and dead end stable?

Yup. I know a lot of people like Street Profits, but way back when they were both in NXT I wanted him and Bianca to be a heel power couple. Have Montez "Marty Jannetty" Dawkins through a barbershop window, and go solo.
In the Elimination Chamber he looked nervous as shit, but he proved he can hang.

Yeah, the Street Profits are so stale right now. Being put with Lashley did nothing to freshen them up, and it's even dragged Bobby down a bit IMO. I don't think they need to split, but Montez should at least be going for the US Title right now. Him vs. Paul could be a fun match. Hell, I'd even take Dawkins going for it.

Really curious why they're dragging their heels on Montez Ford. They've even acknowledged him being poised to be the breakout star of the team in late 2022 with a teased break-up storyline, but has since gone nowhere.

The problem is that despite all his undoubted athleticism, his character work is obnoxiously goofy.

It’s because when he’s not with Angelo all he does is crotch chop nervously.

If this tag team is still together come Summerslam something’s amiss imo. Shit or get off the pot time

The problem is that despite all his undoubted athleticism, his character work is obnoxiously goofy. Obnoxiously goofy is generally a solid prerequisite to being a superstar in pro-wrestling, in fairness. That said, he cut an absolute banger of a pre-match promo at Survivor Series 2020 that I would’ve put money being his ‘Austin 3:16’ in terms of notoriety but alas, here we are, watching him fresh of a faction war with Karrion Kross and Co.

Honestly I really don't at all see it with Ford, though even if a singles run flopped it'd have to be better than this go-nowhere stable he's in now I guess.

Montez needs to leave DeMarcus Cousins and the others behind and go on a run in NXT first to get his footing solo than let him go for the US title

I think Lashley would be more meaningful by himself (or just with B-Fab). And the Profits are good candidates for a tag title run on Smackdown, but that should eventually lead to a split and a singles push for Montez before it’s too late.

Even if they didn’t want to use him as a single, the duo could still be stars and important. They’re talented. I think they need to cut losses with The Pride though

This might sound a bit dodgy, but thinking like WWE tends to show, I feel like maybe Montez's time already passed.
WWE has 'Melo now, plus Trick waiting in the wings. Plus that new 19 year old whose name escapes me right now and Oba Femi.
And they dont tend to have more than one top flight black guy at any one time. Not saying that's right of them...just saying it tends to be how it's been and nothing lends me to think that'll change given the narrowing of the main event to the Anaoi'i family and friends, and Rocky unlikely to let that change too much.

Unless he’s going to get the gimmick of the worlds most obnoxious human he should probably keep teaming with FKA Backpack

I’ve never understood the love for Ford outside of as a tag guy. His character is very obnoxious and unserious, even when doing appearances outside the company.
I’m sure he’s a lovely fellow, but I don’t see the need for him to be outside of a team at all. He reminds me of a more talented Mojo Rawley is all.

I feel like there are a lot of guys that deserve/will get midcard titles before him like LA Knight, Solo, Jey, Gable, Bron, Ija, Melo, Trick

Not sure what they have next for the Street Profits, they have been directionless for so long now.
I don't see Theory/Waller losing their first title defense on TV this week.
