Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley recently made their debut in All Elite Wrestling (AEW) during the “Collision” event held in their hometown of Detroit. Known as the Motor City Machine Guns, they expressed their enthusiasm for joining AEW, emphasizing that it’s where high-caliber talent competes.
Impact in Detroit
Sabin addressed the audience, highlighting their deep connection to Detroit, saying, “Did you really think we wouldn’t be here? There’s no place we’d rather be than the greatest city in civilization. The place we represented for 20 years. Because this is where the best wrestle.”
Immediate Action
The Motor City Machine Guns wasted no time making their presence felt. The Bang Bang Gang, comprised of Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin, and Juice Robinson, had just won an eight-man tag team match. Following this victory, they faced an attack from Clark Connors and David Finlay. Sabin and Shelley quickly intervened to support the Bang Bang Gang.
Wrestling Legacy
Sabin and Shelley are one of the most successful tag teams in professional wrestling. Over the years, they have competed and won tag team titles in WWE, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), Ring of Honor, and New Japan Pro-Wrestling. Their recent stint in WWE ended earlier this year, marking April as their departure from the company.
Their arrival in AEW is expected to strengthen the tag team division further, adding to the excitement and competitive spirit of the promotion.
