ANGELO DAWKINS TALKS HHH IN CHARGE, BECOMING A TEAM WITH MONTEZ FORD AND MORE

Angelo Dawkins did an interview with USA Insider. 

Some highlights: 

How Montez Ford and he became a tag team: 

"As soon as Montez got hired, we’ve been cool pretty much ever since and we never looked back. A couple of years after that, we had a match with each other at Full Sail for NXT and Triple H was like ‘Huh. Let’s see how these guys work together.’ And then we hit the ground running ever since and became the Street Profits. That’s the thing about being boys with your tag partner. We already hung out, it was just a thing of meshing our styles together. I’m the more laid back of the two, he’s the more outgoing guy so it was how we could mesh in the ring. Once they felt we were ready they put us out there and now you see what you got today with the Street Profits, baby!"

What has led to him upping his game lately: 

"I credit all that with going to the [Hart] Dungeon and training with TJ and Nattie [Tyson Kidd and Natalya]. I’ve always felt like I’ve been good in the ring, but I agree with you that lately, I’ve come into a zone of my own, I feel. It was just one of those things where I saw a lot of people talking trash on my name and it started to piss me off. So it was just like ‘Alright cool. Now I’m about to shut everybody up!’ I was just chillin' on the sideline, being a team player, but now it’s time to show everyone what I can do and shut them up in the process."

Dream Match in WWE:

"I gotta pick a stipulation too. Let’s go with TLC for all the marbles, us versus The New Day versus The Usos. That would be my dream match. I mean you’ve got The New Day and The Usos, they’ve been carrying the tag team division for years. We were in NXT for the majority of that time, but we were all watching each other. I remember The New Day watching us, even The Usos back when they were cool before they became The Bloodline. All three of us have been at the top now, taking the world by storm so all three of us, the best tag teams, settling who is the best out of them all."

Triple H being Head of Creative: 

"Man, we like it. The Street Profits, we always have fun no matter what, but we’ve had Triple H with us, he was the one that pretty much put the Street Profits together. So we’re used to Triple H in a way. I’ve had him for 10 years in NXT! But yeah, Triple H is awesome and is always in our ear just telling us to be ourselves and all that good stuff and to go out there and have fun and make sure we go out there and do what we do best and get the crowd pumped."
