Name of Bobby Lashley & The Street Profits’ WWE faction revealed
Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits’ faction now has a name.
Lashley, Angelo Dawkins, and Montez Ford have been aligned together on WWE television since last summer. Now, it looks like their group has been named “The Pride.” In his bio on X, Lashley lists himself as the “leader of THE PRIDE.”
WrestleVotes first reported on Thursday that The Pride was planned to be the faction’s name:
There were plans in place to name the Bobby Lashley / Street Profits faction on last weeks SmackDown, which got axed at the last second for unknown reasons. I’m told those plans are still tentative as the direction of the trio could be shifting. The planned name for the group is ‘The Pride.’
Lashley and The Street Profits are currently involved in a program against a new faction that formed on SmackDown last Friday. The Authors of Pain and Paul Ellering made their return on the episode, joining forces with Karrion Kross and Scarlett. Kross and AOP laid out Lashley, Dawkins, and Ford.
B-Fab, who has been an associate of Lashley and The Street Profits, may also be a member of The Pride. After last week’s SmackDown, WWE uploaded a post-show video with B-Fab checking on Lashley and The Street Profits. They vowed to get revenge on Kross and AOP.
Lashley has declared himself as an entrant in the 2024 men’s Royal Rumble match.
