Origins
In January 2017, Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford formed a tag team together, calling themselves Street Profits.
Ford said they decided to join together after seeing each others work ethic and realizing how many similarities they shared.
[3]When asked about their name in in an interview, Dawkins said, " That was definitely us.
We were like, ‘Yo, what would be hot right now?
What should we name ourselves?’ We went down the list, and as soon as we both said Street Profits, we were like, ’Oh man.
That gotta nice little ring to it.’ Ford added: ”We’re profits.
We’re advancing in life.
We’re advancing the tag team division.
We’re advancing the goal.
We’re advancing the skill.
We’re advancing the style.
We’re advancing everything.
The profit is an advance, and that’s what we do.”
