While this was sort of spoiled by WWE on their social media accounts, it was still a great treat to see Wale join the Street Profits on the way to the ring. Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford have been one of the most exciting and captivating tag teams in NXT history, and it didn't take long for the NXT fan base to catch on.

In no time, the Full Sail crowd was carrying hundreds of red solo cups like Ford, rocking out to their entrance every time they strolled down the ramp. So it was pretty obvious that putting one of the most beloved tag teams with a hype man like Wale would be money. The three men made their way through the crowd, celebrating the two-hour premiere with the WWE Universe in a sea of red cups.

Wale led the crowd in "Street! Profits!" and "We Want The Smoke" chants as he, Dawkins and Ford milked each and every second out of this entrance. After an hour and a half of nonstop action, this was just what we all needed to get amped up for the main event.
