10 WWE Stars Who DESPERATELY Need Something New

2. The Street Profits

Most likely believed WWE would split The Street Profits and give Montez Ford a singles push by now. That certainly appeared to be the way things were headed a while back, but it didn't happen. The Profits remain together, and they're on SmackDown now doing the same stuff they did over on Raw.

Diminishing returns would sum it up best.

Fans still cheer the duo, but arguably not with the same fervour they once did. That might be due to the fact that Ford and Angelo Dawkins "haven't gone away to learn a new hold" (one of JR's iconic backstage quotes when analysing wrestlers who have gone stale). They really need to do just that.

A simple heel turn would re-energise the tandem if WWE doesn't want to go with that previously-expected split. They've stretched the party cup and "WE WANT THE SMOKE" material so thin it's practically see-through now. Change is definitely needed for this pair.
