After becoming free agents recently, a top tag team in pro wrestling is reportedly set to finalize a deal with Tony Khan and could be making their AEW debut sooner rather than later.

The top free agents in question are the 'Motorcity Machine Guns' tag team consisting of Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin. The duo is best known for their time in Impact Wrestling. Meanwhile, the contract of Shelley and Sabin with TNA expired recently and the two have reportedly not yet re-signed with the promotion.

According to a recent report by Bodyslam.net, the Motorcity Machine Guns tag team is headed to AEW after their TNA contract ends. Furthermore, the report also stated that both Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin are working on finalizing a deal with Tony Khan's promotion, which was delayed but the deal would eventually work out.

Alex Shelley teased joining a new company amidst AEW speculations

Alex Shelley of the Motor City Machine Guns was recently asked about the future of the tag team after its TNA contract ended during an interview with Developmentally Speaking. Shelley stated that accomplishing more things in a new company would be exciting:

"That's a really loaded question. Sabin and I have had this conversation where we've talked about, we've done some pretty cool things, simply put, and at this point, I think obviously accomplishing a lot of the same things I've done previously in a new company and swimming in new waters would be very exciting."
