The Street Profits were brilliant tonight
Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode successfully defended their WWE SmackDown tag team titles against The Street Profits this week. The two teams engaged in an intense match which saw several great spots. Both Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins deserve credit for taking the fight to the champions, and they even came close to reclaiming the title during the match.

Ziggler and Roode were also incredible inside the ring this week. The WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champions synced their offense brilliantly and allowed their opponents enough room to showcase their full potential. After a well-balanced bout, the match’s closing moments saw Ziggler deliver a Zig Zag and pin Ford to retain the tag team titles.
The Street Profits looked promising, and they will continue to pose a huge threat in the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship picture. However, they might have to wait before they get another shot at the title. The Alpha Academy and The Mysterios have also gained momentum. Both teams are looking to get their hands on Ziggler and Roode in a championship match.
