Below are a couple of top AEW & WWE news stories of the day.
• Exciting news is on the horizon for All Elite Wrestling as the promotion looks to bolster its roster with top-tier talent. Recent reports from BodySlam indicate that AEW is poised to sign the renowned tag team Motor City Machine Guns, comprising Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin.
The duo’s TNA contracts expired in March, paving the way for their potential move to AEW. During their tenure in TNA, both wrestlers held prestigious titles such as the World and X-Division Championships. Together, they boast an impressive three reigns as Tag Team Champions.
Their final appearance for TNA took place at the March 23rd TV tapings. Despite TNA’s efforts to retain them, Shelley and Sabin have reportedly set their sights on joining AEW.
Sources indicate that negotiations between the wrestlers and AEW are underway, with the finer details of the deal yet to be finalized. However, it’s clear that both parties are committed to making this exciting collaboration a reality.
