Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley made their All Elite Wrestling (AEW) debuts on “Collision” earlier this week as the show took place in the tag team’s hometown of Detroit.
Sabin and Shelley, collectively known as the Motor City Machine Guns, put the AEW tag team on notice and said they were with the company because it was where the best wrestle.

“Did you really think we wouldn’t be here? There’s no place we’d rather be in than the greatest city in civilization,” Sabin said. “The place we represented for 20 years. Because this is where the best wrestle.”
The Motor City Machine Guns didn’t take long to make an impact.
After Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn, Ace Austin and Juice Robinson – better known as the Bang Bang Gang – defeated Jon Moxley, Pac, Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta in an eight-man tag team match, they were attacked by Clark Connors and David Finlay.

The Motor City Machine Guns came down to stave off the attack and embraced the Bang Bang Gang in the ring.
Sabin and Shelley are one of the most-decorated tag teams in pro wrestling. The team had stops in WWE, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro-Wrestling. They’ve won tag team titles at every stop.
The two were recently seen in WWE for a near-two-year run. But they departed the company back in April.
Now, their emergence in AEW bolsters the company’s tag team division.
