Tonight’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown featured a big match for the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championships, with The Street Profits going up against Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode. In the end, The Street Profits retained their title, but had to resort to some underhanded tactics to do it.
Throughout most of the match, Ziggler and Roode controlled the pace and aggression in the match, and it looked like the duo would finally be on their way to realizing their aspirations of winning the tag team titles. However, late in the match, Montez Ford landed the Cash Out on Ziggler, and Roode was forced to get into the match to break things up. In the scuffle, Roode rolled up Ford and grabbed a handful of his tights to try and hold him in place, but Ford was able to reverse it and roll up Roode himself. With Roode rolled up, Ford grabbed some of Roode’s tights, and with the referee unable to see, The Street Profits won the match thanks to the pin.
