Montez Ford has intensified speculation of a Street Profits split following a captionless Instagram post. The image, picturing a moment of intense friction with tag team partner Angelo Dawkins, was from their title match at Clash in Paris on August 31. This public display gives weight to ongoing breakup rumors.
The tension originated from a pre-match argument over who would start against The Wyatt Sicks. Dawkins physically restrained Ford and pointed toward the ring corner. The two exchanged a tense look before the match began.
This disunity preceded a critical loss. Interference from Uncle Howdy, who delivered a Sister Abigail to Ford at ringside, allowed Dexter Lumis to secure the victory. The Wyatt Sicks retained their WWE Tag Team Championship.
Angelo Dawkins added to the narrative following the defeat. He posted a three-word message on X: “Patience is thin.” The post immediately prompted fan discussion about his partnership with Ford.
The on-screen friction aligns with recent industry reports. Sources indicated on September 1 that WWE officials are planning to separate the nine-year tag team. Speculation has long centered on a potential singles run for Montez Ford.
This development marks a sharp turn from recent public statements. On August 23, Ford stated a breakup had “never crossed their minds” and reaffirmed their commitment as a team.
All eyes are now on the September 5 episode of Friday Night SmackDown. The broadcast is a potential flashpoint for an official split or a significant character shift for Dawkins.
