According to the PW Insider (h/t Cageside Seats), WWE considered splitting up The Street Profits in this year’s Draft. It has been said that Montez Ford would have gone to Raw, whereas Angelo Dawkins would have remained on SmackDown.

The Street Profits currently perform for the SmackDown brand but got drafted to Raw. The Draft took place with a lot of twists and turns between Raw and SmackDown.
