Angelo Dawkins

Gary Gordon, known professionally as Angelo Dawkins, was born on July 24, 1990, in Fairfield, Ohio. During his collegiate years, Gordon was a multi-sport athlete, competing nationally in American football, wrestling, and track. This athletic background laid the foundation for his professional wrestling career.

In October 2012, Gordon signed a developmental contract with WWE and began training at the WWE Performance Center, adopting the ring name Angelo Dawkins. He made his in-ring debut at an NXT house show on December 20, 2012, and his television debut on NXT on June 19, 2013. His early years in WWE saw him testing different tag team pairings. A significant turning point came when he partnered with Montez Ford, forming The Street Profits. This tag team quickly gained recognition for their aerial maneuvers and Dawkins’ raw power. Their breakthrough arrived at NXT TakeOver: XXV in 2019, where they captured the NXT Tag Team Titles in a Fatal 4-Way Ladder Match. The Street Profits carried their success to the main roster, winning multiple championships across Raw and SmackDown. They further solidified their status by becoming the second team to achieve the WWE Tag Team Triple Crown, a testament to their consistent performance.

Over his career, Dawkins has collected numerous accolades, including the NXT Tag Team Championship (1 time), WWE Raw Tag Team Championship (1 time), and the WWE (SmackDown) Tag Team Championship (2 times). In 2025, The Street Profits ended a title drought by defeating #DIY for the WWE Tag Team Championships. Beyond WWE, Dawkins and Ford also held the Evolve Tag Team Championship in 2018. His career progression has been marked by a transition from an individual competitor to a highly successful tag team specialist, demonstrating his adaptability and commitment to excelling in professional wrestling.
