A security guard during a recent episode of WWE Monday Night RAW was not happy with the Street Profits' Montez Ford for receiving a “lap dance,” and he has sued the tag team star.
POST Wrestling (via Sports Illustrated) reports that a Cook County Sheriff's officer who worked the July 6, 2026, edition of RAW in Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois, filed a lawsuit against Ford and WWE over an “unwanted sexualized lap dance” during the Street Profits' entrance.

The officer's lawsuit alleges 14 counts. These include assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and violations of the Illinois Gender Violence Act. According to the officer, he has “suffered humiliation, embarrassment, and emotional distress” as a result of the viral moment.
The “lap dance” by WWE's Montez Ford that resulted in a lawsuit
During the Street Profits' entrance, Ford stopped to begin dancing over a security guard, who was sitting with his back to the ring to protect the barricade.
The security guard was clearly uncomfortable as Ford gyrated his hips. It continued for a while, and Ford kept going. After about 13 seconds, the security guard shook his head and appeared to chuckle. He then started looking away before saying something that wasn't picked up by the cameras.

Ironically, this was the last time Ford was seen on WWE programming. Whether that is due to the “lap dance” he did to the security guard is unknown.
On July 6, the Street Profits defended the World Tag Team Championship against The Vision's Bron Breakker and Austin Theory. The Vision won the titles two weeks after losing them to the Street Profits. Fans will have to wait and see when Ford makes his return.
