After months of Bobby Lashley forming an alliance with The Street Profits on WWE television, the company has officially chosen a name for their faction.
The landscape of The Street Profits drastically shifted towards the dark side when they joined forces with Bobby Lashley, creating a new faction within SmackDown. Their recent rivalry with AOP and Killer Kross has sent shockwaves through the WWE Universe.
While discussions had circulated within WWE about incorporating Odyssey Jones into the group, nothing concrete has materialized thus far. Odyssey Jones has remained conspicuously absent from television screens since his promotion to the main roster earlier this year during the Draft.
In a recent report from WrestleVotes, it has been revealed that the planned moniker for this formidable faction is “The Pride.” Originally, WWE had intended to unveil this name during last week’s episode of SmackDown, but for reasons unknown, the announcement was postponed. Moreover, it appears that the creative direction for the trio may be undergoing some changes.
“The plans to christen the Bobby Lashley/Street Profits alliance on last week’s SmackDown were abruptly shelved at the eleventh hour for undisclosed reasons,” an insider shared. “I have been informed that these plans remain tentative as the group’s trajectory may be subject to alteration. ‘The Pride’ remains the intended name for the faction.”
As the WWE Universe eagerly awaits the official christening of Bobby Lashley’s alliance with The Street Profits, the revelation of “The Pride” as their intended moniker has added an extra layer of intrigue to this formidable faction. While the delay in the announcement and potential creative shifts keep fans guessing, one thing is for sure – The Street Profits’ transformation towards the dark side alongside Bobby Lashley is a storyline that continues to captivate and mystify, leaving us all eager to see what the future holds for “The Pride” in the world of SmackDown.
