Montez Ford was recently confused for LeBron James
Montez Ford and Bianca Belair are two of the best athletes on the team. The pair is presently on their route to Germany for Bash in Berlin after vacationing in Belgium.
The EST of WWE recently reported an amusing story that occurred in Belgium. A little fan mistaken Ford for Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James. Bianca Belair documented the encounter on Instagram, including how Ford went along with the fan.
“Just call him Le-Tez… In Belgium and we hear a lil boy yell “Lebron James”… we turn and look… he is now running and yells again in front of everyone “Lebron James”. Montez Ford panics and then HE WAVES BACK. Now he is over here nervous that he is about to break this lil boy’s hear. Like why would you wave back?!”
Ford is immensely beloved among the fans, and he was concerned about breaking their hearts once he discovered what had happened. The Stamford-based organization is presently on a European tour before flying to Germany for the PPV on August 30th.
Many fans had hilarious reactions after the video went viral on social media when fan mistook Montez Ford for LeBron James
One fan couldn’t comprehend the similarity Ford had with LeBron as the fan wrote, “WOW 🤣🤣In their defense the thick beard does swing his look a little toward Bron”
The second fan distinguished the difference between Ford and James as he wrote, “I mean he looks like him but his forehead isn’t a 8head like lebrons”
Third fan wrote, “This is hilarious lol”
The fourth fan had something in his mind as he wrote, “That’s like mistaking a wrestling champ for an NBA legend! I guess the only thing they have in common is they both know how to slam dunk… just in different ways!”
The fifth fan belives it is only the ‘beard’ that is similar between both James & Ford. The fan wrote, “Yoooo lmbo only thing they got the same is the beard definition”
Ford is currently not scheduled for the next PPV. He and Angelo Dawkins unsuccessfully challenged for the WWE Tag Team Titles on the most recent episode of WWE SmackDown.
