NXT Tag Team Champions The Street Profits debut on WWE Raw
This week’s episode of Raw saw the NXT Tag Team Champions make their main roster debut.
The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford) made multiple appearances on tonight’s episode. After a camera shot briefly showed that they were there at the start of the show, Dawkins & Ford did a backstage interview later and announced that they’re on Raw.
Dawkins & Ford didn’t wrestle on tonight’s show, but they appeared in another backstage segment where they interrupted an interview with Paul Heyman. They had their NXT Tag Team titles with them in their segments.
The Street Profits became the NXT Tag Team Champions by defeating The Undisputed Era (Kyle O’Reilly & Bobby Fish), Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch, and The Forgotten Sons (Wesley Blake & Steve Cutler) in a four-way ladder match at TakeOver XXV last month. The titles had been vacated by The Viking Raiders after they were called up to Raw in the Superstar Shake-up.
