Big news broke over recent days and WWE fans are excited. Hot off the heels of Tama Tonga, Jacob Fatu, Ethan Page, and Giulia joining World Wrestling Entertainment, two other stars are seemingly joining the promotion.
The two men in question are Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley, collectively known as The Motor City Machine Guns. The two are a legendary tag team who are likely best known for their time in TNA Wrestling, where they have had success as both singles stars and as a duo.
For now, nothing has been confirmed as to when fans can expect the influential pair to debut. Many believe they could first appear on the NXT brand, while others believe such established names will appear on the main roster.
Regardless of where they show up, numerous big feuds are awaiting the talented team. This article will take a look at a handful of rivals the legendary tag team could end up fighting if they do indeed appear in the near future.
Below are four possible feuds for Motor City Machine Guns after the WWE signing.
#4. Fraxiom vs. The Motor City Machine Guns is a dream match
Axiom and Nathan Frazer are two fantastic wrestlers. While they started as singles talents, the WWE stars eventually united and found instant success. In fact, they're two-time and the current NXT Tag Team Champions.
Many fans believe that Axiom and Nathan Frazer are the best tag team in pro wrestling. They have put on incredible matches with the likes of The Wolf Dogs, Chase U, and other teams on the white and gold brand.
While WWE fans see Fraxiom as the best in the world, many have long believed the same to be true about The Motor City Machine Guns. As a result, the two clashing would be a true dream match to determine the best duo in the industry.
#3. The Judgment Day need to defend their titles more often
The Judgment Day is one of the top stables in all of WWE and part of the reason for that comes down to two men: JD McDonagh and Finn Balor. The Irish Ace and The Prince are the reigning World Tag Team Champions.
For as talented as Finn Balor and JD McDonagh are, The Judgment Day hasn't been acting as champions. Their first title defense since winning the gold a few months ago is scheduled for WWE RAW this week. That is abysmal, and they should defend the gold far more regularly.
The Motor City Machine Guns could make their way to Monday Night RAW and fix the issue of The Judgment Day not defending the gold. Whether Shelley and Sabin were to win the World Tag Team Titles or not, a major championship rivalry would do wonders for the division.
#2. Chase U are actually one of the best teams going
Chase U is one of the most bizarre factions in WWE history. Andre Chase leads the group, and he acts as a teacher and principal. His pupils make up the rest of the stable. The most notable active members are Chase himself, Thea Hail, Riley Osborne, and Duke Hudson.
Despite being a comedy gimmick, Chase University has rapidly proven themselves to be fantastic wrestlers. Andre Chase has had incredible tag team matches with both Duke Hudson and now-former member Ridge Holland. Riley Osborne also delivers in the ring when in tag team matches.
With Chase U being far better at wrestling than WWE fans ever expected, a big-time feud or match with the Motor City Machine Guns would be fantastic. The matches they'd put on could be as good as anything else going on today if Shawn Michaels books it.
#1. The Bloodline holds the WWE Tag Team Titles
The Bloodline has dominated WWE for many years now. While multiple members have come and gone, the current stable features Jacob Fatu, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa.
Just as The Judgment Day has the World Tag Team Titles, The Bloodline has control over the WWE Tag Team Championship belts. Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga won the gold together, but Jacob was made to relinquish his gold, and he gave his belt to Tonga Loa.
The Bloodline has made enemies out of a lot of tag teams, which include Fraxiom, DIY, and The Street Profits. It stands to reason that one of the best teams in the world of pro wrestling could want to stand up for the division and fight The Bloodline. Besides, dethroning The Bloodline would be huge for their careers.
