You need a seal of approval. Monday Night Raw has been changing a lot as of late with Paul Heyman having taken over. The move means that he gets to run things how he sees fit on the show and that can cause some changes. Some new talent has been pushed in some different ways with new faces getting the spotlight. Two faces have been seen weekly, but won’t be in the ring anytime soon.
According to Wrestling Observer Radio, the Street Profits have not yet wrestled on Monday Night Raw because WWE wants them to get over before being put in the ring. The problem is that if they wrestle, they will have to lose and therefore they will not seem as important to the fans. The idea is to treat them as something different than a regular NXT call up. There is no word on when the Street Profits will be getting in the ring.
The Profits were chatty last night. Check out them talking about the Tag Team Titles:
Opinion: In a way this makes sense but in a way it doesn’t. Is it really that hard to just not have the Street Profits lose so early in their in-ring careers on the main roster? That doesn’t sound like it’s the most complicated thing in the world but apparently it is keeping them out of the ring. Couldn’t WWE just have them wrestle enhancement talents or low level teams? It’s not like the Street Profits have never done anything.
Does this make sense? When do you think the Street Profits will wrestle on Monday Night Raw? Let us know in the comments below.
