Former WWE manager on what is holding The Motor City Machine Guns back in the company
Wrestling legend Dutch Mantell recently shared what he believes is holding The Motor City Machine Guns back in the promotion.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Smack Talk show, Mantell noted that the champions were a very talented tag team. However, the veteran noted that while Alex Shelley is very entertaining at promos, Sabin struggles with them. Mantell suggested that Shelley should serve as the mouthpiece for the team moving forward.
"They are a very talented tag team," Mantell said. "The only thing I think holding them back is Alex is very, very entertaining. Chris Sabin, he's not as entertaining. In the work-rate he is, but in the interview style Alex is their mouthpiece. So, I think if they stay with that, we'll see where it leads." [2:02 – 2:36]

The Motor City Machine Guns had remarkable careers in the professional wrestling industry before signing with the company earlier this year. It will be fascinating to see how long they can hold onto the WWE Tag Team Championships moving forward on SmackDown.
