The Motor City Machine Guns, one of the most celebrated tag teams in wrestling, have been creating hype since their departure from TNA earlier this year. Speculation about their next move, particularly a potential WWE signing, has intensified as new information about their future surfaced.
Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley were rumored to have been in talks with both AEW and WWE, though reports indicated negotiations with AEW ultimately fell apart for a variety of reasons.
Excitement is building as the duo will make their highly anticipated WWE debut on the first episode of NXT when it airs on the CW Network next month. Fans are eagerly awaiting their arrival.
PW Nexus reports that WWE is still finalizing logos and merchandise designs for the Motor City Machine Guns as they prepare for their debut. Fans can expect a fresh look, as the duo will not be using their iconic TNA theme music. Instead, WWE’s in-house music team, Def Rebel, has already crafted a new theme specifically for Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley, signaling a complete rebranding for their WWE run.
”Logos, merch designs are still being worked out for Motor City Machine Guns in #WWE. They will not be using their TNA theme, and from the sound of it, Def Rebel has a theme set for them already.”
We have already reported that The Motor City Machine Guns have already signed with the WWE, so fans can expect to see them next month, after which they will become a huge part of NXT programming. Therefore, we’ll have to wait and see how they will be booked after their debut.
