The Motor City Machine Guns share their thoughts following their successful WWE debut.
Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin made their buzzworthy debut on the October 18 episode of WWE SmackDown. They defeated A-Town Down Under and Los Garza in a three-way match. In doing so, they moved on to a number one contender’s match on the October 25 episode.
Speaking on SmackDown LowDown, the Motor City Machine Guns discussed their victory. Sabin noted that it was surreal. (H/t Jeremy Lambert of Fightful for the transcription)
“It’s pretty surreal,” he said. “I’d like to say it’s a dream come true, but it’s more than that. This is a goal accomplished for us. It might have taken over 20 years to get here, to get to this position, but being one match away from being number one contenders for the WWE Tag Team Championships? That’s pretty crazy. Just saying it out loud kinda blows my mind a little bit.”
Sabin then looked forward to their match with #DIY on October 25 and vowed to win the gold.
“We take things one step at a time, but DIY is exactly why we came to WWE,” he said. “Exactly why we want to declare ourselves the best tag team on the planet, because we beat all the great tag teams that already exist in the WWE Universe. So I apologize to you in advance DIY, but you’re looking at the next WWE Tag Team Champions.”
