I forgot about this :beli:

ppl talking about Tez recent comments. And the EC match comes up.

I forgot HHH didn't mention Tez at the presser, but, did on Twitter...after Midnight.

Then, I finally watched Love & WWE months later and it was clear that match was a storyline for the show.

But, I'll give him points for booking Melo last night.

Montez Ford expresses frustrations with the handling of The Street Profits in WWE:

“You've got new faces showing up on the scene, and our audience naturally tends to forget what we've done and how we've done it. In the now, it is at the point where it's been almost 4 years since we've been tag team champions — I'm not going to lie and say I don't sit here and watch all the comments and everything, I watch everything. We're not in conversations when it comes to top tag teams. We're not in conversations when it comes to anything wrestling related, besides getting handled by The Bloodline, and that doesn't sit well with me. So as well as it is going in terms of being my dream job, it is enjoying as it is frustrating.”

Unfortunately, that's what happens when new people come into the fold in the previous ones tend to be forgotten about and spot get taken.

The thing is when you jump ship and go elsewhere, you're essentially doing the same thing to someone else.

That's the wrestling industry for you :yeshrug:

its one thing if youre not producing and the people that come in simply outshine you and the fans gravitate more towards them then it's fair game... we both know that has never been the case with the street profits, they have been the one constant in the tag division for the past 5 years and every multi-team match theyre in people walk away talking about their performance

Of course, but still doesn’t change the premise of my point and how the wrestling world has always worked. New guys are almost always going to come in and get pushes over others or else they wouldn’t decide to go there in the first place.

Exactly. People losing their minds over MCMG winning like it's some amazing Danielson WM30 moment, when in reality their debut was met with a tepid response and the fans aren't hat high on them yet. Montez being more vocal about his frustration is pissing off the neckbeards, because they want to believe that HHH has created this new utopia. I think there's going to be more stories about people being pissed bout their booking since HHH took over.

you get your spot taken if youre not producing and the new guys are and manage to get over with the fans in a way that you havent, neither reigns true for the street profits, they are more over than every new team they have had to lay down for from temu bloodline, DIY, and MCMG.. so them being a victim to that is nothing but politics

and if it's simply a case of "charge it to the game it is what it is" then just break them up and give them a chance to show something solo instead of the constant never ending loop that is their tag team booking

Welcome to the wrestling world as politics has always been the name of the game in that industry. Unfortunately for them, they don't have the cache or name recognition to throw their weight around and influence where they are on the roster.

To your 2nd point, there's talk of that potentially happening so people might end up getting their wish.
