The Street Profits are nominees in two categories: Tag Team of the Year and Breakout Stars of the Year.

It’s been some 2020 for this tag team.

The Street Profits won the Raw tag team titles in March, beating Seth Rollins and Murphy. They retained their titles by defeating Angel Garza and Austin Theory on night two of Wrestlemania 36. They later beat the Viking Raiders, and at SummerSlam, they defended their titles successfully against Andrade and Angel Garza.
