WWE SmackDown has become the land of opportunities for superstars, with its thriving tag team division standing out as a major highlight. With #DIY at the helm as the WWE Tag Team Champions, the division boasts a stacked roster of talents. However, a major title change could be on the cusp as two injured stars could make a shocking return next month and immediately dethrone #DIY.
Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford have been in pursuit of the WWE Tag Team Championship for quite some time. They were set to face Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa last night on SmackDown. However, things took a turn for worse as Nick Aldis revealed that the duo sustained injuries during a house show.
As a result, they have been sidelined from in-ring competition for an indefinite period. There is a good possibility that Ford and Dawkins could make a surprise return on SmackDown following Royal Rumble in February. Considering that they had to forfeit their title shot due to the injuries, the duo may return and immediately seek their title opportunity.
The former tag team champions could pull off a huge upset by capturing gold after 1491 days. This could mark a major comeback story for Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford, which could revitalize their career on the main roster.

Therefore, Triple H might decide to put the gold on their shoulders on the road to WrestleMania 41 to build dream matches or feuds. If this scenario unfolds, it would mark Street Profits' first-ever title win in 1491 days. Their last reign as SmackDown Tag Team Champions spanned from 2020 to 2021, and they haven't won a title since.
Street Profits to be consistently involved on WWE TV after a major change?
WWE has been implementing various changes to its programming recently, and these adjustments have proven to be positive so far. Despite those, the Street Profits have remained in the shadows, unable to receive adequate screentime. However, one significant change has been incorporated into the blue brand this week which could greatly help the duo.
SmackDown has officially switched to a three-hour format from 2025. This is a move that could enable Triple H to consistently feature the former tag team champions on the show. There is now more time to showcase underutilized talents, including Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford, who have been away from the spotlight for a significant period of time.
The Stamford-based promotion can prominently feature well-driven storylines in the tag team division to elevate the card. The Street Profits could be involved in deep rivalries with teams like #DIY and Motor City Machine Guns on the road to WrestleMania 41.
As a result, the show would be more interesting and engaging for the audience, as it will open the doors for more matches and feuds. It will be interesting to see what WWE has in store for the Street Profits upon their return.
