WWE Friday Night SmackDown aired recently on the USA Network, and it had some big surprises. One of the biggest moments was the WWE Tag Team Title match, where The Street Profits (Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins) lost their belts to The Wyatt Sicks (Dexter Lumis and Joe Gacy). The match was exciting and intense, but the result left many fans asking why The Street Profits lost.
Let’s take a look at some possible reasons behind this big title change and why it could be a smart move by WWE going forward.
1. WWE’s Tag Team Division Is Stronger Than Ever
Right now, the SmackDown tag team division is full of amazing teams. It’s one of the best in the world. Besides The Street Profits and The Wyatt Sicks, we also have teams like Fraxiom, Motor City Machine Guns, DIY, Los Garza, and Pretty Deadly. Even Andrade and Rey Fenix are joining the tag team scene.
When the division has so many top teams, it’s better to let the titles change hands more often. This keeps things exciting for the fans and gives more teams the chance to shine. The Wyatt Sicks may be the first of several teams to win the titles in 2025.
2. The Wyatt Sicks Needed a Big Win
The Wyatt Sicks are one of the most talked-about new factions in WWE. Made up of Uncle Howdy, Erick Rowan, Nikki Cross, Dexter Lumis, and Joe Gacy, the group started strong but had to take a break due to health problems. They lost momentum early in 2025.
Winning the WWE Tag Team Titles gives them a big boost and helps them get back on track. It makes the group feel more powerful and serious. This win is important for their future in WWE, even if it meant The Street Profits had to lose.
3. A Huge Tag Team Match May Be Coming at SummerSlam
WWE is building toward SummerSlam 2025, a two-night event happening in August. Big matches like Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena and Jade Cargill vs. Tiffany Stratton or Trish Stratus are already planned.
But what about the tag teams?
With The Street Profits losing their belts, it opens the door for a multi-team match at SummerSlam. WWE may plan something wild like:
The Street Profits vs. Wyatt Sicks vs. Andrade & Rey Fenix vs. Fraxiom.
Such a match would be perfect for a big stage like SummerSlam and would give the tag division the spotlight it deserves.
4. Montez Ford Might Be Going Solo
Many fans believe Montez Ford could be a future singles star. He’s athletic, charismatic, and great in the ring. Even big names like The Rock have said he has what it takes to be a top WWE Superstar on his own.
Now that The Street Profits lost their titles, it might be the right time for Montez to begin a solo career. That doesn’t mean he needs to turn on Angelo Dawkins or break up with him officially. He could simply start focusing on singles matches while still being friendly with his tag partner.
WWE could use this moment to let Montez shine alone and see if he can rise to the top like many fans hope.
