All due respect to Angelo Dawkins, he’s talented as well, but when I see Montez Ford I see dollar signs. That guy pops off the screen and oozes charisma. He held his own against Seth. I do think if they play their cards right he can be a big star down the line.

They bring out the best in each other, if it wasn’t for Ford and the Street Profits, Dawkins would either continue his long tenure in developmental or have finally just been released.
When they inevitably split up, I don’t see Dawkins keeping his job, not even as a jobber. I’m sure they’ll turn him heel and try and get him over but it’ll most likely fail.
Ford however has no ceiling and can soar

What, why?
They're never ever gonna do anything with him beyond this tag team. Ever.
I've seen nothing in him that 90% of the roster don't have either.

He’s definitely got it. He commands his presence whenever he’s on screen. It doesnt matter what you’re doing, when he’s on, hes commanding your attention. His ring work is the thing that needs some polishing, but aside from that he ing gets it

Montez has it and his wife does as well. They are both fantastic. The sky is the limit for Montez and for Bianca. The Street Profits are one of my favorite tag teams in wrestling right now, so I'm a little biased, but I think Montez has a very bright future.

I think Dawkins & Ford need each other. Ford obviously has charisma for days and can carry Dawkins on the mic. But Dawkins is so much better in the ring than Ford. I think the Rollins match showed how bland and underdeveloped Ford is in the ring. Clotheslines/Dropkick/Crossbody/Dive/DDT/Frog Splash. Ford has a very basic moveset, he doesn't need to be like NXT and doing 100 finishers and Canadian Destroyers, but it is clear on his own I don't think he can make it. I think Dawkins needs Ford to be able to cut promos but Ford needs Dawkins to wrestle a match.

I hate it when teams split up. They're better off together.

Montez Ford is a future Wrestlemania main eventer. Guy oozes charisma when he talks and when he's in the ring. He's got "it".

I'm genuinely surprised that people don't see the appeal or anything in him...
He's a Waterfall of charisma. He's athletic as hell. He's got a good look. He's got good ability in the ring.
Montez is going to be a HUGE STAR one day. No disrespect to Dawkins, but once they split up, Ford is gonna get a rocket strapped to his back and he's going to shoot higher than RVD.

I hate it when teams split up. They're better off together. There’s always an ends to a mean when it comes to a tag. Whether it’s to elevate someone or not, tag teams never ever stick permanently. There’s usually one guy that’s destined for more and the other guy who flounders. Except when it comes to the dudes in your profile pic.

I think the real money is in a heel Montez along with his wife Bianca Bel Air. That's where he's really going to shine. Then the crowd will turn him face naturally.

Eh maybe it's just me but I dont see yelling at the camera mostly incoherently as "oozing charisma"...dude has talent coming out of his toes but character development & better promo delivery would put him over the top.

Dawkins is a damn good wrestler , 3 sport National Champion. Don’t sleep on him Dude was in NXT for 7 years lmao Just because he long tenure there doesn’t mean he doesn’t have talent. I think his problem was that he didn’t have a character. Similar to guys like Apollo, Breeze, Kidd all who were solid hands in the ring, but it just took them a while to find a character they could shine with (or in Apollo’s case, are still looking for). Dawkins and Ford are money together. Solid tag team all around. I’d give them some tenure as a team and a run or two with the strap before the split. Once they split, I do feel like Dawkins will fizzle out unless he can find an interesting character. As everyone else has already said, sky is the limit with Ford. This guy can easily carry be a company leader as he gets more years of experience. Great on the mic and has charisma for days. He’ll improve more in the ring with time. I also think he and Bel Air as a power tandem would work great to, similar to a edge and lita pairing where both are active competitors. Really time will tell though. Look back and Enzo, Cass, and Mella. No one saw that happening the way it did with Mella being the stand alone from the group this many years later. So strange things can happen.
