Possible Human-like Rewrite:
Rumors have been swirling among WWE fans about the possible appearance of the Motor City Machine Guns on SmackDown in the near future. The speculation began when Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley, legendary wrestlers from TNA Wrestling, left the company and started exploring new opportunities. And now, it seems like their next destination has been revealed.
During Friday night's show, just before the highly anticipated Bad Blood event in 2024, WWE aired a video package teasing an upcoming surprise. The video featured glimpses of Detroit, police sirens, and two men walking through the streets. With two individuals and a reference to the so-called Motor City, it didn't take long for viewers to connect the dots and assume that the Motor City Machine Guns were on their way to SmackDown.
The reactions to the video on social media were flooded with fans excitedly expressing their anticipation for the arrival of the MCMG. Some even pointed out some major hints in the 22-second video, such as recognizable landmarks in Detroit and the sound of a machine gun firing. It seems like this tag team, known as one of the greatest in wrestling history, is about to make a huge impact in WWE.
Rumors had previously circulated that Sabin and Shelley would join NXT as player/coach roles, but it seems like those plans may have changed. This could be due to the fact that the Lucha Brothers are still under contract with AEW, and their boss Tony Khan has extended their deals due to injuries. Regardless of which brand they end up on, Triple H and Nick Khan, the creative head and president of WWE respectively, have successfully secured one of the most influential tag teams of the last two decades.
The Motor City Machine Guns first teamed up in 2006, appearing in Ring of Honor and PWG before officially forming in TNA in 2007. They quickly became three-time world tag team champions and have also held individual titles. Interestingly, Shelley had a brief stint with WWE in 2020, teaming up with KUSHIDA in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. Sabin also briefly worked with the company as a guest coach, but ultimately focused on his career in TNA.
While other wrestlers, such as Giulia, Ethan Page, and Stephanie Vaquer, have signed with NXT, the MCMG seem to be heading straight to SmackDown. The brand is currently dominated by The Bloodline, made up of Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu, while AEW has also been making waves in the free agent market. This includes former IC Champion Ricochet, and even MVP and Shelton Benjamin making the jump.
The battle for top stars between WWE and AEW is certainly heating up, with even more exciting signings on the horizon. It's an exciting time to be a wrestling fan, and with the Motor City Machine Guns potentially joining the mix, the competition is only going to get more intense.
