WWE RAW announcer Corey Graves says he sees Montez Ford as a future megastar.
Ford has been with the WWE since 2016 and has had a very successful time as part of The Street Profits tag team alongside teammate Angelo Dawkins.
Despite Ford's accolades as a tag team superstar, Corey Graves has said on his podcast After The Bell that with Ford's charisma and incredible athleticism, he can take his game to even greater heights as a singles performer.
"Now Montez is finally starting to believe in himself and Montez is getting to that point where he goes, Okay, I've played ball, I've done it your way, I've done it your way long enough, it's got me to this point,'' said Graves. ''I want to get to that point and then when Montez let's loose. I'm telling you guys. Right now, we've got a mega star on our hands." (from 52:20 onwards)
