Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin, known for years in TNA Wrestling as the Motor City Machine Guns, recently finished up with the company. It was initially reported that Shelley and Sabin were expected to be joining AEW but it appears that things have changed. According to Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com, the talk within wrestling is that Shelley and Sabin are now believed to be heading to WWE instead of AEW.

Meltzer noted the following about the matter…

“Of late, the indications were WWE made the better offer but they were expected to be with whichever side made the best offer. Within wrestling the belief is that they are WWE-bound and Tommaso Ciampa made a reference to them in social media. They’ve also been completely silent about it and clearly have made their decision one way or the other.”

Last weekend, Shelley and Sabin had a singles match against either other at Prestige Wrestling which appeared to be their farewell to the independent wrestling scene.
