The Motor City Machine Guns have an extensive history in professional wrestling, particularly as key players in TNA/IMPACT Wrestling. Shelley and Sabin first came together as a team in 2006 and quickly gained a reputation as one of the most exciting tag teams in the world. Together, they captured the TNA World Tag Team Championships multiple times, becoming one of the most decorated teams in the promotion’s history. Outside of TNA, they also competed in top promotions like ROH and NJPW, where they gained international acclaim and further solidified their legacy as a premier tag team.
