Odyssey Jones could become the next member of Bobby Lashley's new stable after being called up earlier this year.

After a hiatus from WWE programming, Lashley returned to SmackDown in July of this year and immediately entered a program with the Street Profits. This alliance has seen Lashley try and bring out a more vicious side to Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins, who have dramatically changed their dress sense on TV. At WWE Fastlane, Lashley, Ford, and Dawkins competed for the first time as a team but lost to Rey Mysterio, Santos Escobar, and the returning Carlito.

Fightful Select reports that there have been conversations within the company about bringing Odyssey Jones into the faction. Jones was called up from NXT to Monday Night Raw in May of this year during Night Two of the WWE 2023 Supplemental Draft. Jones' most recent outing saw him compete against Bron Breakker at WWE Superstar Spectacle in a losing effort.

Jones attended a WWE tryout in June 2018 and was signed by the promotion the following February. It wasn't long before Jones was impressing with his skills, as he set an 800 lb (363 kg) trap bar deadlift record at the WWE Performance Center Combine, beating the previous record of 775 lb (352 kg) held by Otis.

Jones made his in-ring debut at a November 2019 NXT live event where he lost to Dexter Lumis. Jones made his TV debut in June 2021 with a victory over Andre Chase. That same year, Jones suffered an injury and missed close to a year of action before returning in November 2022.
